the rolling stones – jig-saw puzzle lyrics
[verse 1]
there’s a tramp sitting on my doorstep
trying to waste his time
with his mentholated sandwich
he’s a walking clothesline
and here comes the bishop’s daughter
on the other side
she looks a trifle jealous
she has been an outcast all her life
[chorus]
me, i’m waiting so patiently
lying on the floor
i’m just trying to do my jig-saw puzzle
before it rains anymore
[verse 2]
oh the gangster looks so frightening
with his luger in his hand
when he gets home to his children
he’s a family man
but when it comes to the nitty-gritty
he can shove in his knife
yes he really looks quite religious
he has been an outlaw all his life
chorus [x2]
[verse 3]
oh the singer, he looks angry
at being thrown to the lions
and the b-ss player, he looks nervous
about the girls outside
and the drummer, he’s so shattered
trying to keep up time
and the guitar players look damaged
they have been outcasts all their lives
[chorus]
[verse 4]
oh, there’s twenty-thousand grandmas
wave their hankies in the air
all burning up their pensions
and shouting, it’s not fair!
there’s a regiment of soldiers
standing looking on
and the queen is bravely shouting
what the h-ll is going on?
with a blood-curdling tally-ho
she charged into the ranks
and blessed all those grandmas who
with their dying breaths screamed, thanks!
[chorus]
