about

Inspired by counting prune stones in my bowl at the breakfast table with my Mum when I was a kid...

lyrics

Tinker Tailor

Who decides what a good life is and what is then allowed?
Who then takes the measurements when we laugh too loud?
When did we get old enough to stifle what we mean?
How could we know "better than that" when life is but a dream?

Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor, rich man, poor man, beggar-man, thief!
Let's have a cry my hurting friend.
A hug and a kiss, just keep it brief.
Lady, baby, gypsy, queen, elephant, monkey, tangerine,
Let's have a cry o' hurtin' friend.
A hug and a kiss, don't say what we mean....
