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.
