My parents must've disliked me. they left me in the lurch |
|
Packed me in a basket which was left in a church |
|
It was found by a nun |
|
Who took one peep and run |
|
Screaming 'there's an eye in the middle of his head!' |
|
The man in charge reflected and then to me he said, |
|
'all men are born equal. you can earn your daily bread; |
|
Go now to the belfry |
|
Where the bats are blind and can't see |
|
There's an eye in the middle of your head.' |
|
I sat there in the gloom, thought about my lousy luck; |
|
At least if your body's offensive then your clothes cover it up |
|
But my forehead is quite smooth |
|
Except for one circular groove |
|
And that's the eye in the middle of my head. |
