Valley Girl
Frank Zappa Lyrics

Valley Girl
A stereotypical girl from the San Fernando Valley

She's a Valley Girl
She embodies the characteristics and lifestyle of a Valley Girl

Okay, fine
Expressing consent or agreement

Fer sure, fer sure
Definitely, absolutely

She's a Valley Girl
She embodies the characteristics and lifestyle of a Valley Girl

In a clothing store
Present in a store that sells clothes

Like, oh my God! (Valley Girl)
Expressing shock or surprise

Like, totally (Valley Girl)
Completely, absolutely

Enchino is like so bitchin' (Valley Girl)
Encino is extremely cool or great

There's like the Galleria (Valley Girl)
There is a shopping mall called the Galleria

And like all these like really great shoe stores
And there are many fantastic stores that sell shoes

I love going into like clothing stores and stuff
I enjoy visiting stores that sell clothes and similar things

I like buy the neatest mini-skirts and stuff
I purchase the coolest mini-skirts and similar items

It's like so bitchin' 'cause like everybody's like Super-super nice
It's amazing because everyone is extremely kind

On Ventura, there she goes
On Ventura Boulevard, she is walking

She just bought some bitchin' clothes
She recently purchased some extremely cool clothes

Tosses her head 'n flips her hair
She throws her head and flips her hair in a stylish manner

She got a whole bunch of nothin' in there
The things she bought are essentially worthless or unimportant

Anyway, he goes are you into S and M?
Then, he asks if she is interested in sadomasochism

I go, oh right
She responds sarcastically, implying disbelief

Could you like just picture me in like a leather teddy
Can you even imagine me wearing a leather teddy?

Yeah right, hurt me, hurt me
Expressing skepticism towards the suggestion of pain or discomfort

I'm sure, no way
Absolutely not, there's no chance

He was like freaking me out
He was causing her to feel scared or disturbed

He called me a beastie
He insultingly referred to her as an animal-like creature

That's 'cause like he was totally blitzed
That's because he was heavily intoxicated

He goes like bag your face
He tells her to cover her face, implying she is unattractive

I'm sure!
Expressing firm agreement

So sweet 'n pure
Innocent and pure in character

It's really sad (Valley Girl)
It's genuinely unfortunate

Like my English teacher
Referring to her English teacher

He's like (Valley Girl)
He acts in a particular way

He's like Mr. Bu-Fu (Valley Girl)
He's similar to Mr. Bu-Fu

We're talking Lord God King Bu-Fu(Valley Girl)
He is being referred to as an important or powerful figure

I am so sure
I am completely certain

He's like so gross
He is extremely repulsive or disgusting

He like sits there and like plays with all his rings
He sits and fiddles with his rings

And he like flirts with all the guys in the class
He playfully shows romantic interest in all the boys in the class

It's like totally disgusting
It's absolutely revolting

I'm like so sure
I am completely convinced

It's like barf me out
It's so repulsive that it makes me want to vomit

Gag me with a spoon!
Expressing extreme disgust or disapproval

Last idea to cross her mind
The most recent thought she had

Had something to do with where to find
Was related to locating

A pair of jeans to fit her butt
Finding jeans that fit her posterior

And where to get her toenails cut
Locating a place to have her toenails trimmed

So like I go into this like salon place, you know
So, I enter this salon, you understand

And I wanted like to get my toenails done
I desired to have my toenails taken care of

And the lady like goes, oh my God, your toenails
The lady there exclaims, oh my God, your toenails

Are like so grody
They are extremely disgusting or unclean

It was like really embarrassing
It was truly humiliating

She's like oh my God, like bag those toenails
She says, oh my God, you need to cover up those toenails

I'm like sure
I agree or comply

She goes, uh, I don't know if I can handle this, you know.
She responds hesitantly, unsure if she can manage the task

I was like really embarrassed
I felt deeply humiliated

So sweet 'n pure
Innocent and pure in character

And there is no cure
No remedy or solution exists

Like my mother is like a total space cadet (Valley Girl)
My mother is completely absent-minded or eccentric

She like makes me do the dishes and (Valley Girl)
She insists that I wash the dishes and

Clean the cat box (Valley Girl)
Empty and clean the litter box for the cat

I am sure
I am certain

That's like GROSS (Valley Girl)
That's extremely disgusting

Barf out (Valley Girl)
Expressing intense disgust or repulsion

Oh my God (Valley Girl)
Exclaiming in surprise or shock

Hi!
A friendly greeting

Uh-huh (Valley Girl)
Expressing agreement or affirmation

My name?
Inquiring about her own name

My name is Ondrya Wolfson (Valley Girl)
She introduces herself as Ondrya Wolfson

That's right, Ondrya (Valley Girl)
Confirming that Ondrya is her correct name

Uh-huh
Expressing agreement or affirmation

I know (Valley Girl)
Acknowledging something

It's like
It is similar to

I do not talk funny
She does not speak in an unusual or strange manner

I'm sure (Valley Girl)
I am certain

What's the matter with the way I talk? (Valley Girl)
What is wrong or problematic about my way of speaking?

I am a Val, I know
She identifies herself as a Valley Girl

But I live in like in a really good part of Encino so it's okay (Valley Girl)
However, I reside in a highly desirable area of Encino, so it's acceptable

So like, I don't know
So, I'm unsure or uncertain

I'm like freaking out totally
She is completely overwhelmed or panicked

Oh my God!
Expressing surprise or shock

Hi, I have to go to the orthodontist
She greets someone and mentions her upcoming appointment with the orthodontist

I'm getting my braces off, you know
She is having her braces removed

But I have to wear a retainer
Following the removal of her braces, she will need to wear a retainer

That's going to be really like a total bummer
That will be extremely disappointing or unpleasant

I'm freaking out
She is feeling extremely nervous or anxious

I'm sure
I am certain

Like those things that like stick in your mouth
Referring to the dental instruments used for orthodontic treatment

They're so gross
They are extremely disgusting

You like get saliva all over them
Saliva ends up covering the dental instruments

But like, I don't know, it's going to be cool, youknow
But, I'm not sure, it will be fine, you know

So you can see my smile
So that others can see her smiling face

It'll be like really cool
It will be very nice or impressive

Except my like my teeth are like too small
However, her teeth are too small in size

But no biggie
But it's not a major issue or problem

It's so awesome
It's extremely fantastic or great

It's like tubular, you know
It's like cylindrical or awesome, you know

Well, I'm not like really ugly or anything
She wants to clarify that she's not unattractive

It's just like
It's simply like

I don't know
I am unsure or uncertain

You know me, I'm like into like the clean stuff
She enjoys things that are neat or hygienic

Like a man and like, I don't know
She prefers someone mature or adult-like, but she's uncertain

Like my mother like makes me do the dishes
Her mother assigns her the task of washing the dishes

It's like so gross
It's extremely disgusting

Like all the stuff like sticks to the plates
Food particles adhere to the plates

And it's like, it's like somebody sees food, you know
It's as if someone had never seen food before, you know

It's like grody
It's extremely unclean or distasteful

Grody to the max
Unbelievably disgusting or repulsive

I'm sure
I am certain

It's like really nauseating
It's extremely sickening

Like barf out
Expressing disgust or repulsion

Gag me with a spoon
Expressing intense disgust or disapproval

Gross
Disgusting or unpleasant

I am sure
I am certain

Totally
Completely or absolutely
