Valentine's Day

A dozen long-stem roses

And a lack of panty hoses

Brought Chuck and his tow truck to us last night

Dumped by his lady and looking for dough

He was willing to give Steve's Civic a tow

For a hundred and fifty dollars

We were only an hour from home

So Chuck took off and Dave came in

This guy could take a Honda apart

And put it back together again

In a few hours and if he couldn't he lied

At 11pm Valentine's Day

Man, he was willing to try

And all the angry lovers

Waiting in the gas line

Found no sympathy

From me and my Valentines

A Gilroy grease-monkey

Who liked to get high and get funky

Named Bo joined Dave to work on Steve's car

Bo had learned Civics way back in high school

Where he learned to play it tough

And learned to play it cool

In the back parking lot

By the auto shop at Gilroy High

Ah, then sparks flew into the night

As they probed for hours

Beneath the pale moon light

The whole time me and Steve

Wondering why don't these guys

Have anything better to do

Finally at 2 o'clock they stopped

And they asked if we wanted to sniff a line

I said no thanks but I guess that explains

What they were doing up at that time

Macy's and Hallmark made it what it is today

Well it's a corporate holiday

To all the jealous lovers

With their candies and their flowers

Standing around with nothing left to say

Hoping that maybe tomorrow is gonna better than today

Better than Valentine's Day
