Patricia The Stripper - Chris De Burgh G9 = xx0201 [Verse 1] Dennis is a menace with his ’anyone for tennis?’ and beseeching me to come and keep the score And Maud say ’Oh Lord I’m so terribly bored’ And I really can’t stand it anymore I’m going out to dinner with a gorgeous singer to a little place I found down by the quay her name is Patricia she calls herself Delicia and the reason isn’t very hard to see She says God made her a sinner just to keep 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 them queue right down the street You see Patricia (or Delicia) not only is a singer she also removes all her clothing for Patricia is the best stripper in town [Chorus] And with a swing of her hips she started to strip to tremendous applause she took off her drawers and with a lick of her lips she undid all her clips and threw it all in the air and everybody stared and as the last piece of clothing fell on the floor the police were banging on the door on a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty four Take it away boys [Instrumental] | | | | | | | | | [Verse 2] But poor Patricia was arrested and everyone detested the manner in which she was exposed later on in court well everybody thought a summer run in jail would be proposed But the judge said ’Patricia or may I say Delicia the facts of this case lie before me --- case dismissed! this girl was in her working clothes [Chorus] And with a swing of her hips she started to strip to tremendous applause she took off her drawers and with a lick of her lips she undid all her clips and threw it all in the air and everybody stared and as the last piece of clothing fell on the floor the police were yelling out for more on a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty four - on a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty four Oh yeah!
