  • My funny Valentine
    Knew a girl, used to make me wait for hours
    On the train in the rain with some flowers
    Street girl used to live in the towers
    Real sweet and then sour

    Hard life just like Cinderella
    Single mom, had a kid with a fella
    She was real, real like concrete
    By herself, walked like she own street
    The other fella he was kinda like trash
    The son's father but never did give her cash
    I said there's things you really shouldn't have to do
    Come with me and I'll look after you

    My funny Valentine
    My funny Valentine
    My funny Valentine
    My funny Valentine

    My Valentine, take me away
    Council flats make me blind
    I try but these towers so grey
    Nowhere for my children to play
    My baby needs fun
    My skin needs the sun
    My Valentine

    My funny Valentine
    My funny Valentine
    My funny Valentine
    My funny Valentine

    Knew a girl
    Street girl, used to live in the towers
    Real sweet and then sour
    Hard life just like Cinderella
    Single mom, had a kid with a fella

    My funny Valentine
    My funny Valentine
    My funny Valentine
