“Carpet Man” by Rick Bulifant

So I got a little song I’m working on…
(I’m thinking prog rock or alt country genre)
Melody’s not worked out yet,
but the lyrics are solid gold.
Goes a little something like this:

Well I’m a carpet man
Lay down my life for you
Yeah I’m a carpet man, baby
Lay my life right down for you

I’m the padding when you fall
I got your back from wall to wall.

Well I’m a carpet man
Lay down my life for you
Yeah I’m a carpet man, baby
Lay my life right down for you

Make your life so soft and sweet
Put your toes all over me


Well I’m a carpet man
Lay down my life for you
Yeah I’m a carpet man, baby
Lay my life right down for you

I’m your plush soft touch’n daddy
Why you walk all over me…

(Repeat chorus)

Minneapolis Hates Carpet

Had a huge sale lined up in Minneapolis last week. Guy wanted three dancehalls carpeted with Mohican Burr. Done and done, right? No. Zipped up to meet him with the Burr already en route—dude backs out. Sale botched. Trip botched. Rick gives Mini-Apple a disappointing 1 out of 5 Golden Swatches.
