Valentine's Treatment

If hate's a pleasure
Then the well meaning isn't meant
Valentine's treatment can make is all seem heaven sent

Tempting - tempting - to keep it all a secret
Tempting - tempting - but you know love's the treatment
I only wish it was mine

If he's playing cowboys or she's acting old
Valentine's treatment can break pathetic moulds

Take that boy who hates himself and can't wait to be sold
Valentine's treatment can cure that twisted soul

And love's a good word
Til spread around like so much lies
It takes that treatment to rediscover the surprise
