The Invisible Woman

What a beautiful, beautiful baby Said the face looking down from the sky The neighbour joined in and tickled my chin What a beautiful baby was I Growing up I made sure of attention Everyone's eyes were on me And into my teens I was never not seen The whole world revolved around me, me, me I was here for the birth of my children I was here, the belle of the ball 80 years have gone by in the blink of an eye Now it seems that I'm not here at all Here comes the invisible woman She's been on the planet for years You can't make her out but there's never a doubt The invisible woman is here I strolled down the high street on Sunday In clown shoes and lace underwear Did they notice my dance? Not one single glance So I guess that I can't have been there I can't recall when it first happened Don't know how I became so unseen When my tangible self was put on the shelf These words on the label has been Here comes the invisible woman She's been on the planet for years You can't make her out but there's never a doubt The invisible woman is here Why should I feel so much less than I am? There's so much more of me now Grey hair, whiskers, wrinkles and such Dressing for comfort, longing for touch It should be so simple It feels like so much To ask you to see me It's only a feature of nature You will start vanishing too You will get old, left out in the cold The ghost army's waiting for you Like the leaves that fall before winter Like the day that turns into the night We may not have a choice but we still have a voice The invisible gals love a fight Here comes the invisible woman She's been on the planet for years She has plenty to say, she won't go away The invisible woman is here, here, here The invisible woman is here
