Carpenter

from Glutton's Dozen by Paul Tabachneck

/

lyrics

if i were a carpenter
i'd make you a nice oak dresser tomorrow
if i were a breadbaker
i'd make you loaves from oats and wheat and flour

i'd do anything
i'd make you so many things
i'd give you everything
if i were anything
but what i am

if i were a lawmaker
i'd pass a bill to say you'd never leave me
if i were a shoemaker
i'd make you a size 9 next to my 13

i'd do anything....

you can bank on that
i'll do all i can
to keep you satisfied
you ain't been here long
but now it just feels wrong
without you by my side

Paul Tabachneck New York

I started doing music in Pittsburgh, fronting the folk-rock band Stone Soup, the dark-pop band Dead Pressed Flowers, and the Power Pop band Manpig aka Everybody Wins. After that, I moved to New York, mostly playing solo and busking a lot. Now I live in CT and play in my home office because everything is bad and no one can go out. See me Wednesdays at 7:30 at facebook.com/paultab! ... more
