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

Oh, 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
