| 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 nothin''bout me Run my name through 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 nothin''bout me You’ll still know nothin''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 home |
| Set up your microscope, and tell me what you see |
| You’ll still know nothin''bout me You’ll still know nothin''bout me You’ll still know nothin''bout me etc. |
| You’ll still know zip a-bout me |
