Tom Paxton & John McCutcheon - Invisible Man Lyrics

Tom Paxton & John McCutcheon Lyrics

"Invisible Man"

When you come to a stop on the street
My eyes are the ones you won't meet
With my sign, "I haven't eaten yet today"
I watch as your car pulls away

I am the invisible man
This was really not my plan
Wherever you don't look there I am
I am the invisible man

In your office I'm the guy
The one who every morning says "hi"
Everyday you nod, it's always the same
Ten years and you still don't know my name

I am the invisible man
This was really not my plan
Wherever you don't look there I am
I am the invisible man

I clean your streets
I'd sell your news
I mow your lawns
I shine your shoes
Each day I do the best I can
Still I am the invisible man

We wander life from end to end
Searching for a home, a friend
Longing for the sweet surprise
When suddenly we are recognized

I am the invisible man
This was really not my plan
Wherever you don't look there I am
I am the invisible man
I am the invisible man
