When i was born Lot's of people sayin' I looked like a dead man but to them there was no kindness And so I came into the world with my hands in my jacket Made a whole lotta racket Couldn't speak, but I could beat on a stick O when that aeroplane comes with the lord Will I be ignored Will I be ignored by the lord Will I be ignored there was a woman, she looked on me sweetly I needed her life to be with mine But never will they meet No, never will they see These two vines will twist away, away Will I be ignored by the lord Will I be ignored by the lord, by the lord What for? I may travel on one leg My breakfast will be unpaid And the flapjacks will flap back off the ceiling onto my head Will I be ignored Will I be ignored by the lord Will I be ignored
