เพลง Mr. Tinker (Alternate Version)

Mr Tinker - Harry Nilsson

Mr Tinker was a tailor

And he had a neon sign above his door

And he cooked his meals and he tried to sleep

In a two room shack directly behind the store

Above his dresser was a picture of

His wife who passed away

And next to that there was a picture

Of the boy who couldn't stay

Mr Tinker was a jealous man

And he never smiled to the people

Who came to the store

And he envied them for the life's

They lived and the fun they had

And the colorful things they wore

It isn't easy for a tailor

When there's nothing left to sew

He wishes he could mend his life

But then there's no one left to show

Pa-pa-pa-para-pa-pa-pa poor Mr Tinker

Pa-pa-pa-para-pa-pa-pa poor Mr Tailor

Mr Tinker was a tailor

And the tailor has a well respected trade

But who needs Mr Tinker

When all the suits you buy are already made

Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa poor Mr Tinker

Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa poor Mr Tailor

Pa-pa-pa-para-pa-pa-pa poor Mr Tinker
