Ow
 
 The insect-headed worker-wife will hang her waspies on the line
 The husband burns his paper, sucks his pipe while studying their 'causehion-floor
 His viscous poly-paste breath comes out
 Their wall-paper world is shattered by his shout
 A boy in blue is busy banging out a headache on the kitchen door
 
 And all the while Graham slept on
 Dreaming of a world where he could do just what he wanted to
 
 No thugs in our house are there, dear?
 We made that clear
 We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy, oh
 No thugs in our house are there, dear?
 We made that clear
 We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy
 
 The young policeman who just can't grow a moustache will open up his book
 And spoil their breakfast with reports of Asians who have been so badly kicked
 Is this your son's wallet I've got here?
 He must have dropped it after too much beer
 Oh, officer, we can't believe our little angel is the one you've picked
 
 And all the while Graham slept on
 Dreaming of a world where he could do just what he wanted to
 
 No thugs in our house are there, dear?
 We made that clear
 We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy, oh
 No thugs in our house are there, dear?
 We made that clear
 We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy
 
 They never read those pamphlets in his bottom drawer
 They never read that tattoo on his arm
 They thought that was just a boys' club badge he wore
 They never thought he'd cause folks any harm
 
 The insect-headed worker wife will hang her waspies on the line
 She's singing something stale and simple, now this business has fizzled out
 Her little tune is such a happy song
 Her son is innocent, he can't do wrong
 'Cause dad's a judge and knows exactly what the job of judging's all about
 
 And all the while Graham slept on
 Dreaming of a world where he could do just what he wanted to
 
 No thugs in our house are there, dear?
 We made that clear
 We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy, oh
 No thugs in our house are there, dear?
 We made that clear
 We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy
 
 No thugs in our house
 No thugs in our house
 No thugs in our house, dear
 
 Ow
 
 No thugs in our house
 No thugs in our house, woo
 No thugs in our house
 No thugs in our house, woo
 No thugs in our house
 No thugs in our house, woo
 No thugs in our house
 No thugs in our house, ow
