Carpet Man

The 5th Dimension

CARPET MAN5TH DimensionWhen you see some puddles on the groundYou lay down so she don't have to walk aroundYou think that will protect her from the rainBut you'll never ever stop the painShe walks all over you You know she can, she knows she can You're a carpet man, you're a carpet manYou take such care to keep that girl's feet cleanLike she's some kind of figurineThe world's so far below her it's not her sceneAnd so she uses you to stand betweenShe walks all over youYou know she can, she knows she can You're a carpet man, you're a carpet manI would think you'd get tired of hurtin' Every now and thenIt's no good down there that's for certainAnd carpets do get thinAnd that's when they have to be thrown away That's what she'll say to herself some sunny day And she'll say come to my wedding and of course you doAnd then the groom and her will have a dance on youShe walks all over you You know she can, she knows she can You're a carpet man, you're a carpet man
