Funny, Valentine
For all those that would like to know how screwed up this holiday is, check out the History Channel's website and background at: http://www.historychannel.com/exhibits/valentine/?page=history
And for all those romantics at heart, here's the lyrics, origianlly sung by that sultry, seductive voice of the blues and jazz, Ella Fitzgerald:
Behold the way our fine feathered friend,
His virtue doth parade
Thou knowest not, my dim-witted friend
The picture thou hast made
Thy vacant brow, and thy tousled hair
Conceal thy good intent
Thou noble upright truthful sincere,
And slightly dopey gent
You're my funny valentine,
Sweet comic valentine,
You make me smile with my heart.
Your looks are laughable, un-photographable,
Yet, you're my favorite work of art.
Is your figure less than greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, are you smart?
But, don't change a hair for me.
Not if you care for me.
Stay little valentine, stay!
Each day is valentine's day
Is your figure less than greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, are you smart?
But, don't change a hair for me.
Not if you care for me.
Stay little valentine, stay!
Each day is valentine's day
Now, why can't I find a guy like this? Probably because it's the last thing I'm interested in right now. I swear, if someone tried to romance me I'd probably punch them. I hate this holiday. Several years ago I got dumped on Valentine's day....and then he started going out with my cousin. The last year, well I found out I was pregnant shortly after her father asked me to leave the house because he didn't love me anymore...a week before Valentine's Day. Can I just sum it up with "this holiday hates me and I hate it" and be done with it?
