Connie and Val



    Down at the switchboard of the old Tell N' Tale
    They got some fascinating stories to tell
    Connie and Val nice old gals
    Minding the back of the store for 30 years or more

    Hey Val do you remember that girl back in '72?
    She looked like Cher sure took some getting used to
    She was working here all summer and going to college
    Yeah they musta been teaching her some funny kinda knowledge
    She was a nice enough girl
    took a trip around the world
    I don't remember her name though
    Hey Val do you know?

    Yeah, well honey the switchboard
    Beats going to double features
    You get to talking to some interesting creatures
    Yeah Connie and Val coupla nice old gals
    They like to take a little sherry
    With the obituary

    Hey Val do you remember that girl who's ex-husband was a stalker?
    That was the summer we had that punk rocker
    Oh boy, what a crazy summer that was
    Yes she wore a dog collar and some pink and blue fuzz They were nice enough though
    I wonder where did they go
    And if that girl is still singing
    Hey Val, that line is ringing

    Down at the switchboard of the old Tell N'Tale
    They got some fascinating stories to tell
    Don't ever let 'em tell ya that their job is hell
    Cause pretty soon it'll all be automated well
    You remember that girl used to make us all lunch
    Used to make us all laugh and called us honeybunch
    Then she moved the whole family way back to Idaho
    Well I surely did hate to see that girl go

    Connie and Val nice old gals
    They've seen a few wars but they're still pals
    And they had a few babies
    Smoked a million cigarettes
    They don't need no one to help em when they're placing a bet
    Oh Connie and Val
    Connie and Val
    30 long years same locale
    oh Connie and Val
    Oh yes Connie and Val
    Nice old gals that Connie and Val
