(Many years ago, I did some time as a "girl in a flower shop". A flower shop set neatly and dysfunctionaly on the edge of a semi-ghetto-based ‘hood....Then came Valentines day. So I appropriately wrote a rap song for the occasion..... it’s a true story. Although it would be much more effective if I could perform the song for you live, just think RAP while you read it...) --XKeena
Ballentimes Day
I can’t hide, I can’t lie
and I dare not run away
I am trapped here,
cuz it’s "Balentimes Day"!
na.... na na na.... na.. na.. na..... na.. na
People crowd in, and they want a single rose
they’re missing body parts, or have their fingers up their nose
Big fat woman wiff 5 kids, who like to holler
some guy want 5,000 roses, but he only got five dollar
someone spit in my direction, "Hey, I’s talkin’ to YOU!"
"I jus need sum carnations, duz you got ‘em in blue?"
‘nother bitch comes in with her fat furry purse,
and I knew right then, she’s a goddamn curse
"Ah need flowers dat are red, and a card fer my Mom...
only got twenty dollar - need to send them to Guam!"
na na na.... na na na na na.....
Men arrive in trench coats, payin’ with their plastic,
and boyz from the ‘hood, actin’ kinda drastic
Young boy buy a flower, but he ain’t got any money
"I’ll come back after skool to pay"
(Yeah, right, honey)
In they come, out they go, it simply will not end
"Ballentimes Day" is not exactly my best friend
"How much is dis?" (Why don’t you look at the price?)
Just read the fucking tag, and don’t look at me twice!
I glance at the clock, and it’s a quarter to nine...
nine in the a.m. and I’m ready for some wine!
"I need somtin’ for my man... do you deliver to the zoo?
How much is da balloon, and can you blow it up, too?"
Flower shop is full of people, and another dude comes in..
"I need to get some wedding flowers, and my name is Mr. Chin,
and i need to know cost an money an my daughter get mawwied in
few munz an I wann you attention rite now,
I nee to know bout weddin flowohs!! Pay tention to me, pay tention to me!!!
Na...na na na..... na na na na na na naaahhhh
I wish you could imagine what it is to deal with these..
..creatures of misfortune who cannot say "please"
I couldn’t even tell you all the things that crawl in here...
.."Hey got any green stuff?"
Yeah, go smoke another beer
"How much a dozen roses cost? What? Say WHAT?"
"I told you, eighty five dollars, now kiss my butt!"
Hundreds of choices they got, but they don’t know what to get
They’ll end up buying One red rose, I’m willing to bet
By 3:15 I was going insane
seeing 500 creatures and they all act the same
I tried to be polite to the smelly ugly men
but I can’t imagine ANYONE being a valentine to them
I am the floral slave, but I got something to say...
GOD....
BLESS...
BALLENTIMES DAY!!!!
