Текст песни Mr. Richland's Favorite Song - Mono - Harry Nilsson

When he was young he sang in the band
And the fans all looked the same
And the fans he had were younger than he
And they loved to scream his name

They'd leave at the end of the third show
Go home to talk of the fun
Well, isn't it nice the parents would say
Well, isn't nice you've got someone

Someone to idolize
He must look twice his size
I think it's great, you're going through a phase
And I'm awfully glad it will all be over in a couple of days

Well, the calendar changed and the pages fell off
But the singer remained the same
And he never grew tired of singin' his song
And his fans still called his name

They'd leave at the end of the second show
Go home to talk of the fun
For most of the fans were married by then
So they had to be in by one

I'm awfully glad the husbands would say
I'm awfully glad you got someone
Someone I realize
Who used to look twice his size
I think it's great you still remember his name
And I'll bet if he knew you were there for the show
He'd be awfully glad you came

"The time has come" the Walrus said
"To speak of other things"
Like a fallen star who works in a bar
Where Yesterday is king

The fans will stay for an hour or so
They still remember his fame
"But the time has come" the Walrus said
"To call your fans by name"
