For many years I have been self-employed as a carpet installer. Most recently I have ventured out and opened my own carpet and flooring store. Over 30 years of installing I have been in many homes and met all types of people, some very nice and some not so nice. It's only the people that think they are god's gift to the world that really get to me. They think that because they have everything and because their wallet is bigger than others, they are special and above everyone else. Well, they should take some lessons from some of the more real and down to earth people they encounter. They could take their king size bull-crap and stick it where the sun don't shine. Just Sayin !

Bob Dylan song- Gotta Serve Somebody
King Size Bull-Crap 

You may be living in a king size house 
Sleeping in a king size bed
Laying on a king size mattress 
With a king size pillow for your head 

You may have a king size diamond
And wear a king size ring 
Or you may be living in a king size mess
Messing up everything
 
You may have a king size wallet
And you may have a king size car 
But if you don't have a king size heart
It won't take you very far

You may use a king size mirror
For your morning face 
Or you may dress up like a Barbie doll 
With your king size make-up case
 
You may have a king size suit
And wear a king size tie 
Or you may be living in a plastic bubble 
Telling a king size lie
 
You may ride a king size Harley
Or a truck with king size tires 
You may even be a fireman 
Who puts out king size fires
 
Don't walk around like you're all that 
From the bull-crap you've been fed 
Just be yourself and just stay cool 
Don't wear a king size head

I wish people would feel the same as everyone else, instead of not. I always have to remember; they all do not think like me. Happy Holidays my friend

One of my personal fav's as well. I have 8 poems that have been composed into songs. This is not one of them though. But you are right, it very well could be a great party song. Thanks for the visit and your kind words Lindsay! Best wishes and good health...Charlie

Hello Charlie, I agree with you. People that have more than other people don;t treat other people right. People that have more should put peolple down that don't have the same as they do. Have a nice evening my friend.

Thank you for pointing me in this direction! I love your poem and the observations. Everyone is so self righteous.

Hi Charlie, I don't know how I missed this write. I enjoyed it from start to finish. Great content and message. I found it to be humorous as well. You used the words "King Size" and penned yourself a good write. Folk that act like their sh#@t don't stink will have a sad and miserable life. Good write:-) Alexis

Hello Alexis, I'm so happy you enjoyed and related to this poem. It sure does appear like that about how their lives have been led. Not all, but probably most....Thanks so much for reading, complimenting, and your kind words....:-) Charlie

I like that Michael, It's easy to lose yourself my friend. But it is only those who regain consciousness of the pressure who are truly above the rest. All the best Mike, Charlie
