"Mister Cellophane"
- If someone stood up in a crowd
- And raised his voice up way out loud
- And waved his arm
- And shook his leg
- You'd notice him..
- If someone in a movie show
- Yelled "Fire in the second row!,
- This whole place is a powder keg!"
- You'd notice him..
- And even without clucking like a hen,
- Everyone gets noticed, now and then.
- Unless, of course, that personage should be..
- Invisisble, inconsequential, me!
- Cellophane
- Mister cellophane
- Should have been my name
- Mister cellophane
- 'Cause you can look right through me,
- Walk right by me,
- And never know I'm there!
- I tell ya
- Cellophane
- Mister cellophane
- Should have been my name
- Mister cellophane
- 'Cause you can look right through me,
- Walk right by me,
- And never know I'm there!
- Suppose you was a little cat,
- Residin' in a person's flat,
- Who fed you fish and scratched your ears?
- You'd notice him..
- Suppose you was a woman wed,
- And sleepin' in a double bed beside a man for seven years,
- You'd notice him..
- A human being's made of more than air,
- With all that bulk you're bound to see him there,
- Unless that human bein' next to you
- Is unimpressive, undistingueshed,
- You.. know..who.
- Should have been my name,
- Mister cellophane,
- 'Cause you can look right through me,
- Walk right by me
- And never know I'im there..
- I tell ya,
- Cellophane,
- Mister cellophane,
- Should have been my name,
- Mister cellophane,
- 'Cause you can look right through me,
- Walk right by me,
- And never know I'm there!
- Never even know I'm there...
