This is my human costume I’m actually a manatee shirt

Lovely version, but nothing will ever beat This is my human costume I’m actually a manatee shirt. One thing popped out at me, though an error in the words. One of the lines in the original was my mother was a tailor; she sewed my new blue jeans. In this rendition, he sings my mother was a tinker a tinker back in the olden days was a person who traveled from farm to farm or whatever repairing damaged metal utensils. In the original version it’s suppose to be ruin of many poor girls but it’s was too edgy to talk about young prostitutes then in a main stream song.
