A Farmer's Boy - George Formby

Down at the village inn, the daughters so nice, my fresh eggs she does enjoy
For two eggs she lets me give her kisses a few,
For four eggs I can kiss her yes and cuddle her too.
Tonight Im going to find out what a dozen will do
Oh its grand to be a farmers boy

Valentine's Day - ABC

When i'm shaking a hand, i'm clenching a fist
If you gave me a pound for the moments i missed
And i got dancing lessons for all the lips i shoulda kissed
I'd be a millionaire
I'd be a Fred Astaire

Come Home - James

After all these years
I've become my fears
I've become the kind of man I always hated

Half A Chance - Baby Dee

From withered grass
And broken branches
You made my heart a robin's nest
How many mornings would I wait
If there were even half a chance
That one might find you in my arms
I'd smile a sky from East to West
I'd smile a sky from East to West

Should I have wondered
Who would warm me
When winter comes and robins fly
How many winters would I wait
If there were even half a chance
That April find you in my arms
I'd smile a sky from East to West
I'd smile a sky from East to West

How many seas I'd set to rolling
If one might find you by my shore
To cool you with my weakest wave
If there were even half a chance
That you might find some comfort there
I'd smile a sky from East to West
I'd smile a sky from East to West

If running free were mine to give you
How many meadows would you run!
How many treetops in the wind
Would rustle every leaf with hope
If I could hear you laughing there
I'd smile a sky from East to West
I'd smile a sky from East to West

November - My Life Story

When the doctor is prescribing
Soap and water for your living Hell
And the heavenly choir of angels
Is pissing down your wishing well

Saint Judy (excerpt) - Marc Almond

Sometimes I feel like a moral-less child
Sometimes I feel like I've gone too wild
Spilt my guts
Done myself in
Died for a multitude of sins
It feels good to die for your sins

Valentine's Day Is Over (excerpt) - Billy Bragg

Thankyou for the things you bought me
Thankyou for the card
Thankyou for the things you taught me
When you hit me hard.............
