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 the movie show Yelled \"fired 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
Invisible, 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 one man for seven years You'd notice him
A human being's made of more that air With all that bulk , you're bound to see him there
Unless that human bein' next to you Is unimpressive, undistinguished 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'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
