Friday the Thirteenth Before Valentine's Day
Liner Notes
I don't know. I woke up and had an idea and let myself go goofy with it. #lyricsonly so far. #omens #badluck #valentine #valentines
Lyrics
Triskaidekaphobics need not apply My heart is in my fist, I'll give you thirteen reasons why I'm bad luck, baby, and in love with you I'm bad luck baby, and in love with you I'm bad luck baby, and in love with you I'm a jagged broken mirror, but I'll show you'll something true
I can't be scared of omens 'cause it's all gone bad It might be good to have a spooky game to play I got nothing but time now that I lost my cash Splashing out on evil eyes, they're winking on display But I'm happy as a black cat who's crossing your path Cause it's Friday the thirteenth before Valentine's Day
Oops, I spilled the salt on the cellar floor Somehow under a ladder, so gimme more I'm bad luck, baby, and in love with you I'm bad luck baby, and in love with you I'm bad luck baby, and in love with you Pointing at rainbows? I've done that, too.
BRIDGE: Pick up a penny, heads or tails The ride's already off the rails I'm bringing back side ponytails There's haunted stamps on the check in the mail But the check's in the mail but the check's in the mail But the check's in the mail but the check's in the mail
We'll meet at the bed, you can put down your hat Beside the scary dolls on the duvet I got nothing but time, and I've been such a brat Putting whammies on you from 2 miles away But I'm happy as a black cat who's crossing your path This Friday the thirteenth before Valentine's Day
I swear I saw my doppelganger out in the rain, Just past the neighbor's driveway, and she gave me a wave I'm bad luck, baby, and in love with you I'm bad luck baby, and in love with you I'm bad luck baby, and in love with you And you can wear me out like I'm a clover in your shoe
Don't worry 'bout the bird that's at the windowpane Who can tell a raven from a magpie anyway? I got nothing but time, already told you that And there isn't a curse I haven't heard someone say I'm just happy as a black cat who's crossing your path On the Friday the thirteenth before Valentine's Day

Very playful lyrics… perhaps suggestive and maybe a little naughty. A very witty cobbling of 2 phenomena making for a special song/ celebration. Fun!
Thank you very much for noticing this narrator's naughtiness! I hope it comes through in the music, whenever that emerges. :)
Oh, I love it. I very much dislike commercial Valentine's Day, my sarcastic soul is loving these lyrics!
