Akira The Don - Be a Plumber lyrics

We need to know who the competent people are
And we need to reward them
And even more importantly
We need to tell young people
Hey, there’s some hierarchies of
Competence out there!
Like‚ a thousand of them!
Go be a plumber man!
But be a good one‚ you know be an honest one
Because otherwise all you do is go
Out there and cause trouble
We don't need people to cause more trouble
We need people to solve problems!
Solve problems!
We need people to solve problems!
Solve problems!
We don't need people to cause more trouble
We need people to solve problems!
Solve problems! Go be a plumber man!
Go be a plumber man! Be a good one‚ you know
You know, and so you can be a tradesman
And you can be
You can make a lot of money as a tradesperson
It’s a bloody reliable, honorable‚ uh
Forthright way of making a living
And there is a hell of a lot
Of difference between a working man
Who knows what he’s doing and one who doesn’t
Both in skill and ethics
Right, when you work with someone
Who knows what they’re doing
It's a bloody pleasure
They tell you what they’re going to do
They tell you how much it will cost
They go and do it‚ it works and you pay them
Perfect everyone's happy
And that’s what happens when you
Have genuine hierarchies of competence
We don't need people to cause more trouble
We need people to solve problems!
We need people to solve problems!
Solve problems!

We don't need people to cause more trouble
We need people to solve problems!
Solve problems!

Go be a plumber man! Go be a plumber man!
Go be a plumber man! Be a good one, you know
