Mister Cellophane - Chicago The Musical
Amos. 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 "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 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 vener 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 Supoose you was a woman wed And sleepin' in a double bed beside a man for seven years You'd notice hime A human being's made of more thatn air With all that bulk , you're bound to see him there Unless that human bein' next to y ou 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 myname 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
