[Verse 1]
            Cm
There's the image of a man

       Ab
Who commands a high opinion

       Eb                               Bb
But he hides his hatred with a sheepish grin

      Cm
And beside him, flanking closely

        Ab
Are the boisterous hollow masses

    Eb                       G
Who lap up whatever trickles in

     Cm
This intercourse of nature

     Ab
This vulgar social pastime

  Eb                               Bb
Reflects the lowest mark of our progress

        Cm
And the few who ride peripheral

    Ab
Maintain subtle advantage

Eb                             G
Fighting hard to abstain and redress
[Pre-Chorus]
Cm     Bb        Ab
Do you know your place

Cm     Bb     Ab
In the big charade?

Cm      Bb        G
Are you more than they?
[Chorus]
Cm          Ab   Fm

Cm             Ab  Bb
Recognition by proximity

Cm    Ab        Bb
And a brand new face

Cm                Ab      Bb
Just a smidgen of success pie

Cm             Ab     Bb
Add a pinch of social grace

Cm                    G
You can play with the big boys

Ab                           Eb G
Or you can tell them what to do-oo

Cm            Ab               Bb             Cm  Ab  Bb
But sooner or later, there's another one like you

    Cm
The voyeuristic public

   Ab
Of which we're all a part

    Eb                             Bb
Maintains perspective on the human play

          Cm
And while many hold desires

   Ab
Of joining in the show

Eb                         G
Many turn and go the other way
[Pre-Chorus]
         Cm     Bb        Ab
Tell me, do you know your place

Cm     Bb    Ab
In the big parade?

Cm      Bb       G
Are you fear and shame?
