Maintenance, Maintenance, That's What We Do!

Yesterday in the men's combined Sunday School class Gerry Hill read an original poem he wrote for the purpose of recruiting some help in the Maintenance department. I have included it below for your enjoyment.

Maintenance, Maintenance, that's what we do!
by Gerry Hill, Maintenance Supervisor

Maintenance, Maintenance, that's what we do.
Mop the floor, fix a door, you could too.
Mow the lawn, dusk or dawn, help me thru.
Plunge a pot, clean a lot, that's what we do.

Maintenance, Maintenance, you could help, too.
Change a light, mend a hole,
Pick up garbage with a smile.
Pull weeds in the shrubbery for awhile,
Mulch the beds, or trim a hedge, that's what we do.

Maintenance, Maintenance, please help, soon,
Edge the walks, pick up trash,
Use the vac, clean up a splash,
All this and more we do.
Help me!! You and you and you.

Maintenance, Maintenance, that's what we do.
Fix a flat, errands for this and that. Yes! You could!!
Change a battery, repair the tattery. Sure you could!!
Stack a chair, then a table, at every event if your able.
This is what I do.

Maintenance, Maintenance, that's what we do.
Set up this, and set up that, sometimes even find a dead rat
Snakes and bugs of every kind, plague this place some of the time.
Change the filters, batteries, too.
All these things, that's what we do.

Maintenance, Maintenance, that's what we do.
Sure would be nice if you'd do some, too.
