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

Spooky - Parody #17

The gang's back at it.

Decided to take a break for the holidays...it turned into a bit more extended than planned but now we're back.


















Spooky 
Written by TT
To the tune of "Spooky" by Atlanta Rhythm Section 
(and a bunch of other different artists)

You call in the evening, asking if your overdues are renewable
I try to look you up, ask if you have your card number available
At first you say “No,” you say, “It’s nowhere in sight”
And then you stop and say, “Alright”
Work is kinda crazy with a spooky old dude like you.

You always keep me guessing, I can’t figure out exactly what you’re saying
You cover the phone, tell someone “This ain’t the time for you to bother me, playing!”
I get confused, I don’t know what’s going on,
And then you’re back, you say, “Carry on.”
Work is kinda crazy with a spooky old dude like you.
Spooky! Spooky! Yeah – yeah!

If you decide you’re going to stop harassing me with all your phone calls
I’d be so pleased, I will go jumping up and down through library halls
Just like a ghost, you’ve been a’hauntin’ my dreams,
Please don’t call or come in on Halloween
Work is kinda crazy with a spooky old dude like you!

Ah, Spooky! Yeah!!!

Spooky - Original Lyrics

In the cool of the evenin' when ev'rything is gettin' kind of groovy
I call you up and ask you if you'd like to go with me and see a movie
First you say "No", you've got some plans for the night
And then you stop, and say, "All right"
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you.

You always keep me guessin', I never seem to know what you are thinkin'
And if some fellow looks at you, it's for sure your little eye will be a-winkin'
I get confused, 'cause I don't know where I stand
And then you smile, and hold my hand
Love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you
Spooky! Spooky! Yeah - yeah

If you decide someday to stop this little game that you are playin'
I'm gonna tell you all that my heart's been a-dyin' to be sayin'
Just like a ghost, you've been a-hauntin' my dreams
So I'll propose... on Halloween.
Baby, love is kinda crazy with a spooky little girl like you

Ah, spooky, yeah-uh!






Stay tuned on Wednesday's for more library parody fun.

Hopefully.
