Finally, on Johnny Rivers' "Tracks of my tears," the lyrics "Outside, I'm masquerading/Inside, my heart is fading" have always suggested to me a much better rhyme for "masquerading."

(wink wink, nudge nudge)

wasn't that originally a Smokey Robinson song? Not to bust on Johnny Rivers, I love "Secret Agent {Asian} Man..." but I think he did alot of covers, riding the implicit racial politics of music in the 60's...
