My Funny Valentine

Lorenz Hart / Richard Rodgers

Behold the way our fine feathered friend
His virtue doth parade
Thou knowest not, my dim-witted friend
The picture thou hast made
Thy vacant brow, and thy tousled hair
Conceal thy good intent
Thou noble upright truthful sincere
And slightly dopey gent

You're my funny valentine
Sweet comic valentine
You make me smile with my heart

Your looks are laughable, un-photographable
Yet, you're my favorite work of art

Is your figure less than greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, are you smart?
But, don't change a hair for me

Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine, stay!
Each day is valentine's day

Is your figure less than greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, are you smart?
But, don't change a hair for me

Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine, stay!
Each day is valentine's day
