Someday boy you'll reap what you 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 than 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, well

You know where the phone is

Don't come 'round reminding me again

How brittle bone is

Got didn't make you an angel

The devil made you a man

That brutality and the 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-glass 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 idea 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
