[Verse 1] I walked into the corner shop on the tenth of the month The lilies were a bargain, I could buy them by the bunch The baby’s breath was breezy, the daisies looked so sweet A ten-dollar investment for a little floral treat But the calendar is turning, there’s a shadow on the wall And the florist’s getting ready for the greatest heist [Chorus] Oh, it’s the Valentine’s inflation, the red rose tax is here The most expensive petals in the cycle of the year Yesterday a dozen was a humble, simple price But today you’ll need a mortgage for a plant that looks this nice Love is in the air, or so the poets say But it’s mostly just the markup for a Valentine’s bouquet [Verse 2] The stems are all the same length, the scent is just faint But the price tag on the bucket is enough to make you faint Is the water laced with silver? Is the soil of gold? Or is it just the story that we’ve all been bought and sold? Supply is getting lower while the demand hits the sky And my bank account is screaming as I tell the clerk "I’ll buy" [Bridge] I could’ve bought a garden back in mid-July I could’ve bought a forest for the price of this one guy I’m paying for the pressure of a seasonal deadline Maybe next year I’ll bring her a cactus... Or a very lovely bag of flour... At least the baking kind doesn't wilt. [Chorus] Oh, it’s the Valentine’s inflation, the red rose tax is here The most expensive petals in the cycle of the year Yesterday a dozen was a humble, simple price But today you’ll need a mortgage for a plant that looks this nice Love is in the air, or so the poets say But it’s mostly just the markup for a Valentine’s bouquet
