Bring back my connie to me

Once in this land on a tram rode a man, a man I was happy to see
Walking the isles with a smile on his dial , always bought my ticket to me
Then one fine day master Jeff had a plan, to replace him with buttons and steal
In all of this time they've not come to me once, sorry Jeff but your connies aren't real

Bring back, bring back, bring back my connie to me, to me
Bring back, bring back, bring back my connie to me

My connie would never stand still on a tram, as he walked he would shuffle and sway
Riding each curve like a surfer at sea, always gave me the time of the day
They're bringing back connies all over the world, like Frisco and Amsterdam
Jeffery please won't you bring our connies back to us, we need one on every tram, so

Bring back, bring back, bring back my connie to me, to me
Bring back, bring back, bring back my connie to me

Now mothers can't get their prams up on the tram, and seniors get stuck in the doors
Graffiti is written all over the seats, and drunks are passed out on the floor
The machines won't answer the questions you ask, it won't help out all the lost souls
Where on earth have our connies all gone, it looks like their all on the dole, so

Bring back, bring back, bring back my connie to me, to me
Bring back, bring back, bring back my connie to me

My connie would always be there on the tram, in his bag was a bundle of change
Always, you'd know where to go , or get off, now these days my trams not the same
Jeff's Metcard has failed in a miserable way, and the people just simply won't pay
But what is it worth to the trams on this land when they've had their souls stolen away, hey!


Bring back, bring back, bring back my connie to me, to me
Bring back, bring back, bring back my connie to me

Bring back, bring back, bring back my connie to me, to me
Bring back, bring back, bring back my connie to me
