My Funny Valentine

Rickie Lee Jones (born November 8, 1954) is an American vocalist, musician, songwriter, and producer. Over the course of a career of over three decades, Jones has recorded in various musical styles including rock, R&B, blues, pop, soul, and jazz standards. Her songwriting has been characterized as "a blend of bravado and vulnerability [that] wavers on indefinable borders." She is also known for her unique singing style, especially in live performances. One concert reviewer, describing her rendering of "We Belong Together," states she "reached her apex, skating from swells into near screams into breathy whispers, from pontillist stacatto scats into brassy, trumpetlike bursts." more »

My funny valentine,
Sweet comic valentine,
You make me smile with my heart.
Your looks are laughable, they're un-photographable,
But still, still you're my favorite work of art.

Is your figure less than Greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak, baby, are you smart?
Please, don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay my funny valentine, stay
Each day is my Valentine's Day
