Lyrics
Said the mechanic to the doctor
This pain in my head
Is sometimes so very bad waking up I truly dread
Said the mechanic to the doctor
This pain in my back
Makes it hard to do my job
That is a fact
Said the mechanic to the doctor
I don?t mean to complain
Use your skill and knowledge to make me feel good again
Said the mechanic to the doctor
I?ve got aching feet
And as you see some excess weight
I?m always tired and beat
Said the doctor to the mechanic
I pay alimony
High rent, mortgage, life insurance and necessities
Said the doctor to the mechanic
As a result of that
My funds are running low right now
So for free fix my flat
Said the mechanic to the doctor
I?ll do that for you
I?ll even check the water, oil, and the engine too
Said the doctor to the mechanic
I?ll do the best I can
To cure your ailments and your pain
You?ll be a happy man
Oh doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor
We both fix broken bodies
To your car I am an M.D.
