Waiting On a Tradesman

I'm waiting on a tradesman
I've been waiting now for months 
The place is falling down around me 
While I'm down in the dumps 

The plumbings making noises 
The lightings on the blink 
Can someone fix the cupboards 
And replace the laundry sink 

Please fluff up the insulation 
A paint job wouldn't go amiss 
All of this I can't do myself 
Because my skill set is remiss 

My job is pushing pen and paper 
And its only now I realise
That in hindsight my career choice 
Was perhaps somewhat unwise

I could be making the big bucks 
And raking in lots of dough - 
Oh, if only l'd been a tradesmen 
I wouldn't have this tale of woe!
