Patience Is a Virtue For Just a Little While
Did you ever sit and wait
To hear from someone you just hate
You have no choice
Where's their letter
Their fat check can make you better
If someone just controls your fate
Don't get angry if they're late
Just breathe in slowly
Let it out
A smile to all
Don't ever pout
And when the cash comes to your door
Just be nice
Forget you're sore
Just say thanks
Like once before
So what's the moral of this tale
You waited daily for the mail
No more stomping on the floor
Just take the bucks
You don't need more
Don't have to sit and frown
Just laugh inside
You won the crown
Soon it's time to pack and go
No being nice
No eating crow
Just drop them all
And close the show
You might even win a Tony
For being such a real phony
