Patricia The Stripper by The Wombats
Patricia The Stripper
No Capo
A
She works downtown in an unmarked bar, flyin' 'round poles
D
She always gave me the fright of my life
A
I didn't mean to get involved it was the alcohol
D
Mixed with an empty feeling inside
Bm
It's such a bad idea
D E
To fall in love with a 'lady of the night'
A
(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
D
Why didn't God give her two left feet
Bm D
Then she couldn't run away from me
A
Months go by and I'm alone in bed
D
While she's greasing up for when the businessmen and lawyers arrive
A
I've got to wear a beard, a suit and tie
D
To get past the door if I want to see my girl tonight
Bm
I go to all this effort
D E
Just to see my fair Patricia going home with some other guy
A
(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
D
Why didn't God give her two left feet
Bm D
Then she couldn't run away from me
A
(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
D
Why didn't God give her two left feet
Bm D
Then she couldn't run away from me
Bm D A E
She thinks I'm sad and that's alright
Bm D A E
But she doesn't hate me so there's my little alibi
Bm D A
I can't, I can't leave, I can't, I can't, I can't
E Bm
She's my coked up Botox girl
A E
Patricia, Patricia
A D
Oh, Patricia the stripper you are my sunshine
Bm A
So, why can't you come home with me tonight
A
(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
D
Why didn't God give her two left feet
Bm D
Then she couldn't run away from me
