T here's a tramp sitting on my do orstep
T rying to waste his t ime
W ith his mentholated s andwich
H e's a walking clothes l ine
A nd here comes the bishop's da ughter
O n the other s ide
A nd she looks a trifle jea lous
S he's been an outcast all her l ife
Me I'm waiting so p atiently
L ying on the fl oor
I'm just tryin' to do my ji gsaw puzzle
Before it rains anymo re
O h the ganster looks so frighten ing
W ith his blue gun i n his hand
W hen he gets home to h is children
H e's a family m an
W hen it comes to the minnie grin nies
H e can shove in his k nife
Y es he really looks quite r eligious
H e's been an outlaw all his l ife
Me I'm waiting so p atiently
L ying on the fl oor
I'm just tryin' to do my ji gsaw puzzle
Before it rains anymo re
Me I'm waiting so p atiently
L ying on the fl oor
I'm just tryin' to do my ji gsaw puzzle
Before it rains anymo re
O h the singer looks a ngry
A t being thrown to the l ions
A nd the base player he looks nervous
A bout the girls o utside
A nd the drummer he is so s hattered
T rying to keep on t ime
A nd the guitar players look d amaged
T hey have been outcasts all their l ives
Me I'm waiting so p atiently
L ying on the fl oor
I'm just tryin' to do my ji gsaw puzzle
Before it rains anymo re
O h there are twenty thousand g randma s
W aving hankies in the a ir
T hrowing up their pe nsions
A nd shouting it s not f air
T here is a reggiment of s oldiers
S tanding looking o n
A nd the Queen is bravelly s houting
W hat the hell is going o n
W ith a blood curling Tal ly-hoo
S he charged in to the r anks
A nd blasted all those G randmas
W hith their dieing breath screamed t hanks
Me I'm waiting so p atiently
L ying on the fl oor
I'm just tryin' to do my ji gsaw puzzle
Before it rains anymo re
