My Funny Valentine [with Jan Johansson] - Helen Merrill

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

Youre 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 valentines 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 valentines day
