Lyrics

My funny Valentine, sweet comic Valentine

You make me smile with my heart

Your looks are laughable, unphotographable

But you're my favourite work of art

Is your figure less than Greek?

Is your mouth a little weak?

When you open it to speak

Are you smart?

Don't change a hair for me

Not if you care for me

Stay little Valentine, stay

Each day is Valentine's Day
