Lonely litlle carpenter,for twisted wool...
Bb D
Lone...Standing tuft..

Defy...The foot..

What age are you in carpet years

Is it spring and you're the first to wake
Bm
Or are you old but still strong enough
D
To keep what winter wants to take...
Bb D
Lone...Standing tuft..
Bb D
Defy...The foot..

Is it luck that you're still standing
D
And you've not been flattened too
Bm
Do you tremble in the litlle wind that
D
Squeezed out by my shoe
Bb D
Lone...Standing tuft..

Has your tuftiness mutated so
D
Your strands are made of steel

Is it sheer determination you'll
D
never bend beneath the heel
Bb D
Lone...Standing tuft..

Defy...The foot..
