Deburgh Chris Patricia The Stripper Lyrics

Patricia The Stripper Lyrics

Dennis is a menace

 With his "Anyone for tennis?"

 And he'd beseech me to come keep the score.

 And Maude said, "Oh Lord, I'm so terribly bored"

 I really can't stand it anymore...

 

 I'm going...out to dinner,

 With a gorgeous singer,

 To a little place I know,

 Down by the key.

 

 Her name is Patricia,

 She calls herself delicia

 And the reason isn't 

 Very hard to see.  

 

 She said, God made her a sinner

 Just to keep those fat men, thinner

 As they tumble down in heaps

 Before her feet.

 

 They hang around in groups

 Like battle weary troops,

 One can often see the

 Queue right down the street.

 

 Because Patricia

 Or Delicia

 Not only is a singer

 She also removes all her clothing

 

 For Patricia,

 Is the best stripper in town...

 

 And with a swing of her hips,

 She started to strip

 To tremendous applause

 She took of her draws

 

 And with a lick of her lips

 She undid all her clips,

 Threw it all in the air

 And everyone stared

 

 And as the last piece of clothing

 Fell to the floor, 

 The police were banging on the door

 On a Saturday night,

 In 1924

 

 Take it away boys...

 

 

 Well, Patricia was arrested

 And everyone detested,

 The terrible manner in which 

 she was exposed

 

 Later on in court 

 where everyone thought

 A summer's run in jail 

 would be proposed..

 

 But the judge said, "Patricia,

 Or may I say Delicia,

 The facts of this case lie before me  (knock, knock, knock)

 Case dismissed... This girl was in her working clothes...

 

 And with a swing of her hips,

 She started to strip

 To tremendous applause

 She took of her draws

 

 And with a lick of her lips

 She undid all her clips,

 Threw it all in the air

 And everyone stared

 

 And as the last piece of clothing

 Fell to the floor, 

 The police were yelling out for more (more)

 On a Saturday night

 In 1924
