Builder's Hands from T by Jac

High vis vest
Taut on your chest
Hold out your builder’s hands

Dimple dot cheek
Stumble on the speak
That weird static in the air

Brick and mortar
Silent waters
And the canyon of doubt

Papa show tough love
Bit of push, bitter shove
Now shake the builder’s hand

I couldn’t show
I did not know
I guess sorry doesn’t cut it

Strung out in Dubai
Or stoned in Brunei
Never quite feel at home

Rocks in his gut
Don’t know what’s what
Still mind the bedside manner

Stitched up belly
Nothing’s on tele
You know nothing stays on

Desperate housewives
Days of our lives
The week I hear that death rattle hum

Let’s make amends
Try it again
Hold out your builder’s hands
