The Maid

The light, that little blinking light
That kept us up all night
And the elevator chains rattled through the wall

Well the light, that little blinkin' light
That kept us up all night
Was tellin’ us that we had missed a call
We wanted to go out
We didn’t get far
We couldn’t drive a car

So we pushed all the elevator buttons till we found a bar
And out there in the hall
Laughin' too loud
When we found
That we were locked out
We had to call the maid
Oh by the way
She says hi

Over by the door
She took her shoes off
And left them on the floor
Just for us to trip on over and over

When the light
That little pesky light
Was comin’ through the blinds
It reminded me we forgot to hang the sign on the door
And when we saw the sun
Your diamonds were gone
And so were all your drugs
And cockroaches scattered when we flipped the bathroom light on

And out there in the hall
Laughin’ too loud
When we found
She cleaned us out
We had to call the maid
Oh by the way
She says hi

And over by the door
She took her shoes off
And left them on the floor
Just for us to trip on over and over and over
There she left your purse
But she took all your cash
And your cigarettes
With your stash
We had to call the maid
Oh by the way
She says …
