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 
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 than 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 
Never even know I'm there
