Val is mothering;
Some might say she's smothering.
Gary is her man.
No couple more ideal or devoted in all the land.

Abby Cunningham
Wants to get her hooks in him.
Time is on her hands.
She won't say whether she has him or not - only that she can.

When Val thinks her life's as good as can be Abby sneaks up from behind.
Crash! Bang! Abby's machinations come down around Val's head.
Crash! Bang! Abby's machinations make Gary hers instead.

Gary's rich today
'Cause his dad has passed away
Leaving him a pot.
It's not as much as his brothers' but for Gary it's a lot.

Abby sees a chance
To profit from her new romance.
She syphons off some cash.
Gary never suspected she could be quite so brash.

But when he turns his back on his wife she sneaks up from behind.
Crash! Bang! Abby's machinations come down around his head.
Crash! Bang! Abby's machinations make the money hers instead.

-oOo-

Greg's had a lonely life
Since he lost his lovely wife.
He wants to start anew.
He calls on Abby thinking she might want to too.

Abby says okay.
Wedding bells! They're on their way!
A merger made in heaven -
Until he tries for a powerful job that she wants to be given.

Just when he thinks the deal is all done she sneaks up from behind.
Crash! Bang! Abby's machinations come down around his head.
Crash! Bang! Abby's machinations get the job for her instead.

A chorus of 'Don't Worry Be Happy'
And the world . . . is . . . hers . . . in-STEAD!!
Crash! Bang!
