Mr Cellophane [Spanish translation]

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

"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

Invisible, inconsequential, me

Cellophane, Mister Cellophane

Shoulda 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

Shoulda 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

Residing in a person's flat

Who fed you fish and scratched your ears

You'd notice him

Suppose you was a woman, wed

And sleeping 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 being next to you

Is unimpressive, undistinguished, you-know-who

Shoulda 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

Shoulda 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

[Spoken]

I hope I haven't taken up too much of your time
