"Mr. Jackson's Got Nothing To Do" lyrics
"Mr. Jackson's Got Nothing To Do"
Now he lays on his bed, in his undershirt suit
With his newspaper tie, and his foam rubber boots
With his book of dirty pictures, he is searching for the truth
Mr. Jackson's got nothing to do
Now he sits in the swing, when the street turns blue
Nods at the policemen, doing it too
And yawns when the world comes galloping through
Mr. Jackson's got nothing to do
Now I pass by his door, and I look in his room
It's half past three, and it's the last week in June
The linoleum's bare, except for his shoes
Mr. Jackson's got nothing to do
Remember Mr. Jackson, I know that you do
With his gold-plated lighter that was just like new
And Saturday night he wore his wingtip shoes
Mr. Jackson's got nothing to do
Now he lays on his bed, in his undershirt suit
With his newspaper tie, and his foam rubber boots
With his book of dirty pictures, he is searching for the truth
Mr. Jackson's got nothing to do
