Be my Valentine

(The Brigadier)
Words and music by Matt Williams
Ooh, could she be my girlfriend? Ooh, could she be mine?
Ooh, could she be the apple of my eye? Ooh, be my Valentine?
Ooh, be my Valentine?

I bought her flowers with my hard earned pay,
She had a look which said “Go away”,
I had so many things I wanted to say,
That only sound good on Valentines Day,
What could I do?

Ooh, I doubt I’ll ever be her boyfriend? Ooh, I doubt she’ll be mine?
Ooh, but I may have one last chance, for her to be my Valentine,
Ooh, be my Valentine?

I cooked a meal it was my special treat,
A fresh lasagne with the finest meat,
I chopped the onions they made me cry,
They went into the Wok I started to fry,
What could I do?

Ooh, I really want her as my girlfriend, Ooh, I want her as mine,
Ooh, I want her to eat my lasagne, Ooh, be my Valentine,
Ooh, be my Valentine?

She came around and I served the food,
The lights were low and it set the mood,
But then she spat it out and said “You Freak!...,
…I thought you knew that I did not eat meat?!”
What could I do?

Ooh, so she will not be my girlfriend, Ooh, she won’t be mine,
Ooh, well I’ll have to try someone else, to be my Valentine,
Ooh, be my Valentine?
