Hey girl
I wrote you a new song
About Valentine's Day-ay-ay
And how it's one fat lie!
If you Google St. Valentine's history
You're gonna find out he's a bit of a mistery
There's debate among the who, when, where and why
The church says there's three Saint Valentines!
The stories all vary, but they all agree
He was beaten and killed pretty terribly
Stories galore of his courageous acts
Though none of them are based on historical facts
So it's Valentine's Day and you're single
And you've got nobody with which you can mingle, baby
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry
Don't you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie
Nobody really knows who St. Valentine was
So they gave him lots of story just because
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry
Now you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie
We spend 20 billion dollars a year
On roses and heart-shaped souvenirs
Sentimental ads try to tug at our heartstrings
"Show her you love her with a 40,000 dollars ring!"
So it goes, we'll drive to Walmart
Buy a rose, and a card from Hallmark
Surprise you're girl
"Oh Honey, you're so sweet!"
But is it really that sweet when there's a deadline to meet?
So it's Valentine's Day and you're single
And you've got nobody with which you can mingle, baby
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry
Don't you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie
Our economy depends on it every year
It's really less about love, more related to fear
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry
Now you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie
I'm not trying to hate on couples on this holiday
Love can be so beautiful in oh so many ways
Why you gotta have to wait
To take your mate out on a specific date
When you got 365 days a year?
NO CHORDS
So it's Valentine's Day and you're single
And you've got nobody with which you can mingle, baby
Dry your eyes, no tears, don't cry
Now you know Valentine's Day is one fat lie-
It's over!
