Carpet Man Lyrics By The 5Th Dimension

    when you see some puddles on the ground
    you lay down so she don’t have to walk around
    you think that will protect her from the rain
    but you’ll never ever stop the pain

    she walks all over you
    she walks all over you
    she knows she can
    she knows she can
    you’re the carpet man
    you’re the carpet man

    you take such care to keep that girl’s feet clean
    like she’s some kind of figurine
    the world’s so far below her it’s not her scene
    and so she uses you to stand between

    she walks all over you
    she walks all over you
    she knows she can
    she knows she can
    you’re the carpet man
    you’re the carpet man

    i would think you’d get tired of hurtin’
    every now and then
    every now and then
    it’s no good down there and that’s for certain
    and carpets do get then

    and 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 do
    and then the groom and her will have a dance on you

    she walks all over you
    she walks all over you
    she knows she can
    she knows she can
    you’re the carpet man
    you’re the carpet man

    carpet man
    carpet man
    carpet man
    carpet man
    carpet man
