I found an empty house in my neighborhood
I knew that we shouldn t but I thought we could.
Knew it wouldn t be hard to slide into the backyard
Called all my friends and slipped a hundred to the guard.
We turned on the radio and had a party on the patio.

Betty s in the sauna and she s getting kind of hot
Mary s in the icebox wishin she was not.
Connie s in the whirlpoolJimmy s tryin to be cool
Libby s in the bushes cause she s nobody s fool.
We turned the lights down low and had a party on the patio.

Heard the cops are coming so we tried to jump the fence
Mary didn t make it and we haven t seen her since.
Connie had another drinkJimmy simply couldn t think
Billy G. was passed out underneath the sink.
But everybody s gonna show for another party on the patio.
