THE DREAM

Worked my ass off for 27 years 
Tile day after day 
Raised kids 
Fed and clothed 
God is good 

Older now 
Can't get around like I use too 
Not working so much with the tools 
Got my license 
Now it's about business 

I am amazed at how competitive the field is 
They are doing good work cheap 
I don't know how to come out after taxes and insurance
These other guys can't be doing the right thing
or they don't need any money

I have a friend
Told me if I ever needed anything
Give him a call

It started the process
It's not about quality and service
It's about legislation
My friend submitted a bill
Tile will be mandatory in all construction
My friend is real good
His future is guaranteed

It passed

The next step was to tighten the test regulations
It should be tough, when government assisted

My guys don't have to worry anymore
about doing it right
Anybody who tries to stop us, or interfere
will go to jail

This is the way it should be
I deserve my dream
I am a winner
Nice stuff
Freedom

So what if it costs you yours
All you need to do is pass the test
The rest is easy
The government does all the work
And wipes out all in the way

I don't think you should do tile though,
maybe insurance.
