In my opinion we need our big wheelers and dealers,
And we need our potato peelers,
We need those to help lift and assist the ones needing help each day,
And we need those who can balance corporate worksheets in a fair and honest way,
And I think they both should get good pay,
Because giving hands on care to those in need,
Is just as important as shuffling papers around to find numbers to read,
Pay scales say something about our priorities and what we value, too,
And people helping people is, also, an important work to do,
But do the wages show it---even though we all know it?
