Dennis is a menace
with his
Anyone for tennis
And beseeching me
to come keep
the score
And Maude says
Oh Lord I'm
so terribly bored
I really can't stand it
any more
I'm going
out to dinner
with a gorgeous singer
To a little place
I've found down
by the quay
Her name is Patricia
She calls herself
Delisher
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 cue right
down the street
You see Patricia
or Delisher
Not only's 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 off her draws
And with a lick
of her lips
she undid all the clips
Threw it all in the air
and everybody stared
As the last piece of
clothing fell to the floor
The police
were banging
on the door
On a Saturday night
nineteen-twenty-four
Take it away boys!
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 Delisher
The facts of this
case lie before me
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 off her draws
And with a
lick of her lips she
undid all the clips
Threw it all in the air
and everybody stared
And as the last piece
of clothing fell
to the floor
The police were
yelling out for more
On a Saturday night
nineteen-twenty-four
On a Saturday night
nineteen-twenty-four
Oh yeah!
