When you see some mud upon 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 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

She depends on you to stand between

And she walks all over you

She knows she can

You're the carpet man

You're the carpet man

I would think you'd get tired of hurting

Every now and then

It's lonely down there, that's for certain

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 the groom and her will have a dance on you

And they'll waltz all over you

They know they can

You're the carpet man

You're the carpet man

Carpet man

Carpet man

Carpet man

Carpet man
