Valentino Lyrics by Long Fin Killie

Valentino

1996

[Verse 1]
And this is why I wish I could be
Just like Spencer Tracy
But I don't have the build or the poise
And I'm a few pounds shy
If I were more like Spencer
I might not carry this handful of broken fingers
Just 'cause I saw Valentino smoking under the streetlight
I saw Valentino smoking under the streetlight
[Verse 2]
I swear I'm stone-cold sober
I can't believe my eyes
But I'm not going over
I just hold back and hide
Then again, the lights spread all around him like wings
I saw Valentino, Saint Valentino
I saw Valentino, Saint Valentino
[Verse 3]
I held back fifteen years or more
Falling in love with another
Watching the saint with a roll-up
Resisting the urge to go over
Until I couldn't help it
And I crept over into the wings and halo
I said, "You look like Valentino
You look like Valentino
You look like Valentino"
[Verse 4]
He grabbed me by the hair and threw me down
Screaming, "I ought to fucking lynch you!"
He broke most of my fingers
By standing on my hands
He broke most of my fingers
Standing on my hands
And it was just the same thing
Just the same thing, all over, all over
