[Verse]
C E Am
I wonder if the De Le Salle Brother got Papped
C E7 Am
And did their holy mothers and jealous fathers; ever feel trapped
F G E E7
Did Mary, Like all the attention
Dm G
And did Jesus ever; get Detention
C E Am
I wonder if Caesar ever did his sums
C E7 Am
And did Joan of Arc ever slip and slice her thumbs
F G E E7
Chopping onions, in double home economics
Dm G
And would Archimedes; have liked electronics
[Chorus]
C E7
Panic stations don't set in
Am
Don't worry if you're not getting; The reward
F G
That you think you deserve
C E7
Good Things come to those who wait
Am
God knows I've waited patiently
F G Am
Take a ticket, there's a seat here next to me
[Interlude]
Am G
Am F G
[Verse]
C E Am
The number 17 and Steve McQueen
C E7 Am
Seem an unlikely Combination considering
F G E E7
his elevation to Hollywood god and all-round blonde adonis
Dm G
I can't see him settling down in Heaton Norris
C E Am
Would Elvis been able to adapt
C E7 Am
Would he have gone to court over reports his phones was tapped
F G E E7
Would Priscilla remain and reside by his side
Dm G
With the lonely loyalty of being his bride
[Chorus]
C E7
Panic stations don't set in
Am
Don't worry if you're not getting; The reward
F G
That you think you deserve
C E7
Good Things come to those who wait
Am
God knows I've waited patiently
F G Am
Take a ticket, there's a seat here next to me
