Patty Lee Lyrics - Let's Stay Friends - Les Savy Fav

"Patty Lee, turn the lights on, please 

There's something I don't understand 

Patty Lee, turn the lights on please 

This party's gotten out of hand." 

Those were the last words her suitor spoke before he croaked 

In seven seconds he'd be dead, tied to the headboard of Patty Lee's bed 

"Patty Lee, turn the lights on, please 

There's something I don't understand 

Patty Lee, turn the lights on please 

This party's gotten out of hand." 

Patty Lee sloughed her skin and showed what was within 

It's hard to describe, she moved like smoke and sounded like ice 

"Patty Lee, turn the lights on, please 

There's something I don't understand 

Patty Lee, turn the lights on please 

This party's gotten out of hand." 

We used to be gods 

Now we're so plain 

It took ten million years 

Just to say my real name 

Back before Babylon 

Shit was cool 

Now we've all got our saddles on 

We trot to school 

If I may wax poetic 

I think the facts are plain 

I am the moon ascendant 

I am not soon to wane 

See my shadows, twice the mountain 

Or stretched across the desert plain 

Shouting sun flares up like fountains 

Shouting planets down like rain
