Jenny Jenny who can I turn to?
You give me something I can hold on to
I know you'll think I'm like the others before
Who saw your name and number on the wall
Jenny I've got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny don't change your number
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Jenny Jenny you're the girl for me
Oh, you don't know me but you make me so happy
I tried to call you before but I lost my nerve
I tried my imagination but I was disturbed
Jenny I've got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny don't change your number
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
I got it (I got it) I got it
I got your number on the wall
I got it (I got it) I got it
For a good time, for a good time call
Hey, Jenny don't change your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny I've called your number
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Jenny Jenny who can I turn to
(Eight six seven five three oh nine)
For the price of a dime I can always turn to you
(Eight six seven five three oh nine)
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine
Eight six seven five three oh nine (five three oh nine)
Eight six seven five three oh nine (five three oh nine)
Eight six seven five three oh nine (five three oh nine)
Eight six seven five three oh nine (five three oh nine)

867-5309 / Jenny lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, Warner Chappell Music, Inc
d.: Hey, Cal.E., it’s nice to see you back at work after a well-deserved break. It’s too bad, though, that you had to fill in for a sick worker on the day shift. Since I’m trying to write a book about working at The Kennel, I would like to get off work on time today. So, if you don’t mind saving me some time, could you ask the security officer in the one picket to bring me inmate number 8675309.
C.: Jenny, Jennie?
d.: Jenny, Jennie. She’s the one for me. She’s the one I want to see. He number is…
C.: I got the number. I need to save you time. While we’re talking,though, what are you going to call your new book?
d.: The working title is, “The Human Kennel; Sheer Stupidity.” I want to tell people why some of the inmates here should never be released into the free world, even if they haven’t committed a heinous crime. Some just aren’t ready to take care of themselves.
C.: Isn’t that ironic, since we work in a pre-release facility, where the inmates are supposed to be getting ready to re-enter the free world? I know that you have some interesting stories, but they aren’t all yours. What if you get sued for telling someone else’s story?
d.: That’s unlikely. When the book starts selling, I plan to contribute the profits to a fund to help kennel employees who are down on their luck and/or can’t work because of illness and injury. Once they run out of sick days and annual leave, they won’t be paid, unless they have insurance to cover them for that period of time.
C.: That’s nice of you, d.c. The one picket officer says Jenny, Jennie is in Galveston for an appointment today.
d.: That’s odd. Her chart doesn’t say anything about her having an appointment at the main hospital today. I was just going to check her eyes. I suppose it can be done another day, but why did they send her to Galveston?
C.: The officers just told her that she had an appointment she couldn’t refuse. Maybe she changed her number and it’s the new inmate with her number…
d.: She was told not to change her number! I need to make her mind.
C.: O-kay. Speaking of not being able to refuse something, I won’t be able to help you write our blog on Wednesday.
d.: Why is that, Cal.E.?
C.: That’s when me and my band, The RoCKats, go on our CONVERSE tour.
d.: Wow, that’s great, Cal.E. You and your band have only been playing for a little under a year, and you have already procured a sponsor. That’s awesome, totally awsome!
C.: Well, it’s not exactly the company that makes shoes. I just got us a series of concerts in some major Texas cities.
d.: What cities?
C.: Clute, Orange, Navasota, Victoria, Egypt, Roman Forest, Sadler, and East Bernard! The Texans have a stadium that holds just under one percent of the population of Greater Houston, and have sold it out since they came into existence….
d.: (Theoretically).
C.: Anyway, if we get one percent of the population of those towns to come to our concert that will be… help me out, d.c. you’re good at math.
d. About 1,000 people in eight locations. That's about 125 tickets sold in each town, on average. You’d better concentrate on Clute and Orange. Those are the two biggest venues you and your band will be playing. I suppose since Clute is the first stop, you’ll want to skip doing our blog today and get started practicing with your band right after you get off work here. So, I guess we’ll just cut this short and let you and your band get started practicing (it couldn’t hurt, and it might actually help).
C.: Thanks, d.c. With a month of practice, we might start sounding better
.
d.: A month? I thought you said you were going to start the concert tour tomorrow.
C.: No, d.c. I said on Wednesday. I didn’t say which Wednesday.
d.: (Heavy sigh). I guess that’s the wrap for today, folks. I need to go home and start writing my new book! Please join us tomorrow for another episode of Cal.E.’s Korner.
