Letra
"Tell Me What You Want"
(A Witty, Defiant Country Anthem)
Verse 1:
You handed us the plans, said, “Stick to the page,”
But every other week, there’s a brand-new change.
“Move that wall, fix that floor, paint it all again,”
Well, tell me what you want—this ain’t never gonna end.
Chorus:
Tell me what you want, and let me do my job,
We ain’t magicians, we’re workin’ with what we got.
Deadlines don’t mean nothin’ when the specs ain’t clear,
Tell me what you want—get me outta here.
Verse 2:
The crews are out there, bustin’ their backs,
While you’re in the office, drawin’ up more tracks.
You blame the delays on the folks swingin’ hammers,
But your plans are like a jukebox—always changin’ grammar.
Chorus:
Tell me what you want, and let me do my job,
We ain’t magicians, we’re workin’ with what we got.
Deadlines don’t mean nothin’ when the specs ain’t clear,
Tell me what you want—get me outta here.
Bridge:
You’re callin’ me lazy, but check your own crew,
Emails and meetings ain’t layin’ down glue.
This ain’t my first rodeo, I know the drill,
But we’ll be here forever if you don’t stand still.
Verse 3:
The barracks ain’t done, and that’s the honest truth,
But don’t act like this ain’t partly on you.
You want a miracle on a budget that’s thin?
Well, miracles don’t happen when you keep changin’ the end.
Chorus:
Tell me what you want, and let me do my job,
We ain’t magicians, we’re workin’ with what we got.
Deadlines don’t mean nothin’ when the specs ain’t clear,
Tell me what you want—get me outta here.
Outro:
So call me a contractor, or call me a fool,
But I ain’t playin’ this game by your ever-changin’ rules.
Tell me what you want, and I’ll get it done,
But don’t point the finger—I ain’t the only one.
