O VALENTINE MINE
She's sweet, she's smart, she's distant,
So how to make her yours?
No formula exists,
Claim vets of courting wars
And yet there is--here's how:
You look in her eyes and state,
"Honey, you really look thin,
And your hair, well it's so great."
This sure-fire formula
Comes with a guarantee
You'll win her hesitant heart
(Though it's never worked for me).
Thank you.
