Please be my Valentine.
I eat passion cake by the plateful
and oysters by the jar
I've waited at the rainbow's end
and I've wished upon a star.
Lucky coins were thrown into a fountain
and I've just consulted Mystic meg
"Get a rabbit's foot" she told me,
I replied "pull the other leg"
All the competitions were entered
in a bid to win your heart
I even consulted Russell Grant
when he drew me up a chart
Four leaf clovers were planted
and I stroked the Budha's belly
Clare Rayner tried to give me the benefit of her advice
when she was on the telly
Clairvoyants have been booked by the dozen
and psychics by the score
All my dreams have been analysed
and yet still I feel unsure
Lucky horseshoes hang on my bed head
and I once wished on a blue moon
If your hearts going to be pierced by cupid
I hope he makes it soon.
I flew to Ireland on a broomstick
and I kissed the Blarney Stone
A pain in the butt was the result of that trip
and a Leprechaun that moaned.
All the sixes came up
when I threw the lucky dice
A seance with Rudolph Valentino,
gave me plenty of good advice
A traveller sold me some heather
and I had my fortune read
"Cross my palm with silver"
was all the gypsy said
I've stroked black cats by the hundred
and waved magic wands galore
Charms and amulets hang round my neck
until they nearly touch the floor
I try to look sexy and seductive
and I really strut my stuff
I perfume, diet and exercise
until I've really had enough
"Patience is a virtue" they say
and "try to bide your time"
"Your ship will come in one day"
and then I'll make you mine.
But before the Plastic Surgeon is booked
and I buy that "magic" cream
Are there any signs in the stars
that I could be loves young dream
I'm worn right to a frazzle
and I'm running out of time
Will the genie of the lamp grant my wish?
Please be my Valentine
