I could write a blog. I have thoughts.

Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

Patron Don't Lose That Number - Parody #19


Patron Don't Lose That Number
Library Song Parody written by Tracy T
To the tune of "Rikki Don't Lose That Number"
by Steely Dan


I see you're leaving, that's okay
Looks like your computer session is now done
I guess you kind wet yourself--please don’t run
But if you go and change your pants….


Patron, don’t lose that number
You don’t wanna share it with someone else
Send it off in an e-mail to yourself
Patron don’t lose that number
It’s the only one you own
If you use it you might feel better
Or just go home

I have a co-worker, she knows your name
She can look your info up on Workflows
She says you like to play games, I don’t know
But if you go and change your pants….

Patron, don’t lose that number
You don’t wanna share it with someone else
Send it off in an e-mail to yourself
Patron, don’t lose that number
It’s the only one you own
If you use it you might feel better
Or just go home

You tell me that I’m not kind
I think that you have lost your mind
And you should go and change your pants

Patron, don’t lost that number
You don’t wanna share it with someone else
Send it off in an e-mail to yourself
Patron, don’t lose that number
It’s the only one you own
If you use it you might feel better
Or just go home






Rikki Don't Lose That Number - Original Lyrics


We hear you're leaving, that's okay
I thought our little wild time had just begun
I guess you kind of scared yourself, you turn and run
But if you have a change of heart

Rikki don't lose that number
You don't want to call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself
Rikki don't lose that number
It's the only one you own
You might use it if you feel better
When you get home

I have a friend in town, he's heard your name
We can go out driving on Slow Hand Row
We could stay inside and play games, I don't know
And you could have a change of heart

Rikki don't lose that number
You don't want to call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself
Rikki don't lose that number
It's the only one you own
You might use it if you feel better
When you get home

You tell yourself you're not my kind
But you don't even know your mind
And you could have a change of heart

Rikki don't lose that number
You don't want to call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself
Rikki don't lose that number
It's the only one you own
You might use it if you feel better
When you get home
