Sorry very late. Just saw the challenge
I’d be delighted if someone felt like adding music and vocals to this little ditty :)
Don’t wanna crush your buzz
Don’t wanna steal your thrill
But Valentine’s just a crock
And flowers fill his skull
Chocolate and champagne
Suddenly costs double
But you’d better not forget
Cos you’ll be neck deep in trouble
Don’t wanna crush your buzz
Don’t wanna steal your thrill
But Valentine’s just a crock
And flowers fill his skull
Did you book your table
Before you left last year
Cos if you calling around now
It’s takeaway pizza n beer
Don’t wanna crush your buzz
Don’t wanna steal your thrill
But Valentine’s just a crock
And flowers fill his skull
You got your card
You got your gift
Nothing can go wrong
All that’s left fo you to do
Is heed the warning in this song
Love is on a timetable
It only counts on 14th Feb
wipe the calendar of other dates
Or you’ll be sleeping alone in bed
Don’t wanna crush your buzz
Don’t wanna steal your thrill
But Valentine’s just a crock
And flowers fill his skull

oh, you're a first time FAWMer! Well then welcome from me! :) You forum like a champ, little wonder I didn't think to check.
Wonderful lyric, I think come 5090, you'll be there right? ask me if you don't know, you'll have a dancecard full of happy collaborators.
Short sharp stinging..... flowers fill his skull. Ouch and yummy at the same time. :)

Ooh, flowers in a skull, there's an image for ya! Yeah, the commercial holiday is super annoying.
@jwhanberry Feb 2022
This should make your point very clearly. Glad I'm not on the receiving end. ;)
@eargoggle Feb 2022
I like the anti-commercialism of this one, nicely done, love to hear the song
@winchperry Feb 2022
Great take in the topic! I can def hear this working well in a simple melody. Good for you for jumping in on the skirmish.
@kahlo2013 Feb 2022
Ha! Fun, snarky, and sadly true! I like the crisp lines and how well you develop this concept. Great pointed chorus.
@sunfire Feb 2022
Love it. I took a similar route.
@zeekle1998 Feb 2022
Nice take on the commercialism that is Valentines day. One of the reasons I'm not a fan of it all. Nicely written.
@thedutchwidows Feb 2022
Cool take on the prompt. Very nicely done!
