"Valentine"

Valentine
If you're rolling over me
I bet the farm that you can
Read my mind
Skimming through the classifieds
You're on the up and up

Do you, do you want it
Bad enough to get it?
And if you really get it
Will you have the foresight to quickly give it up?

These guys take getting used to
These guys aren't made like they used to

Valentine
If you're gonna bring me one
I'm gonna pay for it
Every time
There's no getting 'round it
When you're on the up and up

Do you, do you want it
Bad enough to get it?
And if you really get it
Will you have the foresight to quickly give it up?

These guys take getting used to
These guys aren't made like they used to
These guys aren't taking chances
These guys are doing what the man says

On the eighteenth hole
You drop it just enough
To let me see the dirty stuff
And in my notes
You're almost professional
You're one of 'em on the up and up

But later, in bed
You ask to excuse yourself
You're driven to increase your wealth
'Cause in your head
You know I'm professional
'Cause I know how to give it up

These guys take getting used to
These guys aren't made like they used to
These guys make it their business
These guys collect on the interest

Valentine
If you're rolling over me
I'm walking through you
To the next in line
And he's gonna tell me
"Baby, I'm on the up and up"

Do you do you want it
Bad enough to get it?
And if you really get it
Well, I'd bet the farm that you wouldn't know what to do
