lyrics

(Pat came)

She stood at the front in her coat with her bag still on
Like a woman who had come to collect somebody's washing
She watched four songs with her arms folded, unimpressed
And then she left and we have never played better since

Pat came to the show, the show, Pat came to the show
She said the sound was worse than the laundrette
Pat came to the show, the show, Pat came to the show
And she was right and that is why we love her

She let four teenagers rehearse in her shop for two years.
Free heat, free light, free electricity, no questions.
She has never once said she was doing us a favour. Not once.
(BAND SLAMS BACK)
