this song is a response to "Allison" by Elvis Costello

lyrics

Valentine, nothing is yours and mine.

I’ll put on a dress and I’ll take off a dress whenever I want.
I don’t aim to, no I do not aim to impress you, oh
Valentine, nothing is yours and mine.

I’ll make love to, yes I will make love to whomever I want, so
Give your blessings or give me your curses but I’ll be just fine, oh
Valentine, nothing is yours and mine.

And after all this time you haven’t learned yet:
You’re just breaking your own heart ‘til
You forgive and you forget and

So when you go home tonight and you lay down in your bed won’t you
Try to keep those thoughts of me in my party dress out of your head, oh
Valentine, nothing is yours and mine.
