Valentine's Day Is Over Lyrics

The song Valentine's Day Is Over is performed by Billy Bragg in the album named Must I Paint You a Picture? The Essential Billy Bragg in the year 2003 .



Some day, boy, you'll reap what you've sown
You'll catch a cold and you'll be on your own
And you will see that what's wrong with me
Is wrong with everyone that you want to play your little games on

Poetry and flowers, pretty words and threats
You've gone to the dogs again and I'm not placing bets on you
Coming home tonight, anything but blind
If you take me for granted then you must expect to find surprise, surprise

Valentine's Day is over, it's over
Valentine's Day is over

If you want to talk about it, well, you know where the phone is
Don't come 'round reminding me again how brittle bone is
God didn't make you an angel, the Devil made you a man
That brutality and economy are related, now I understand
When will you realize that as above so below there is no love?

Valentine's Day is over, it's over
Valentine's Day is over

For the girl with the hour gla*s figure, time runs out very fast
We used to want the same things but that's all in the past
And lately it seems that as it all gets tougher
Your ideal of justice just becomes rougher and rougher

Valentine's Day is over, it's over
Valentine's Day is over

Thank you for the things you bought me, thank you for the card
Thank you for the things you taught me when you hit me hard
That love between two people must be based on understanding
Until that's true you'll find your things
All stacked out on the landing, surprise, surprise

Valentine's Day is over, it's over
Valentine's Day is over, it's over, it's over
