about

"My brother installed hardwood floors in his house after the carpet got ruined. One of his friends was staying over and was drunk. He left the bathtub running for several hours. Now the dog can't get any traction as he tries to run across the living room.
That is gold you should use that."

lyrics

the other day i carpeted the floor
so when i don't wear shoes it would not freeze me any more
all was going well until some guys came round to drink
and one of them, in haste, mistook our bathtub for a sink

----
CHORUS
he did not turn the tap off and the bathtub overflowed
the water leaked right out and flooded most of my abode
i had to get new floors installed and carpet is not cheap
so now the dog falls over on our hardwood in a heap
----

it was just a little get-together harmless so it seemed
the possibility of damage i had not forseen
but bathtubs are notoriously tempting to the drunk
and for this ghastly oversight it seems my house was sunk

----
CHORUS
