Lay my head on the surgeon′s table Take my fingerprints if you are able Pick my brains pick my pockets Steal my eyeballs and come back for the sockets Run every kind of test from A to Z And you′ll still know nothing ′bout me
Run my name though your computer Mention me in passing to your college tutor Check my records check my facts Check if I paid my income tax Pore over everything in my C.V. But you′ll still know nothing ′bout me You′ll still know nothing ′bout me
You don′t need to read no books on my history I′m a simple man, it′s no big mystery In the cold weather, a hand needs a glove At times like this, a lonely man like me needs love
Search my house with a fine tooth comb Turn over everything ′cause I won′t be at home Set up your microscope and tell me what you see You′ll still know nothing ′bout me

Synapse to synapse: the sneaky kids had attached beer cans to the bumper so they could drive up and down the main drag. People would will turn to see who′s making the racket. It′s not...the first time.
When they lay down the fish will swim upstream and I′ll contest, but they won′t listen when the casualty rate′s near 100 percent, and there isn′t a pension for second best or for hardly moving...
