We are releasing this single in honor of valentines day and all that it stands for. We are all for giving gifts to celebrate love and what not but we feel that the mark up on flowers this week exploits consumers with romantic expectations.

lyrics

I want to buy you flowers
Because they’re the only thing as remotely pretty as you
I want to buy you flowers
Because your pretty and because I feel like society wants me to

because it is valentines day

I want to buy you flowers
But I’d be damned if I let the bourgeoisie win
I want to buy you flowers
But they marked up the price a lot and my wallet is looking thin

because it is valentines day

So I didn’t buy you flowers
But it’s not because I didn’t want to
I didn’t buy you flowers
I didn’t buy you the red ones or the artificial blue
I didn’t buy you flowers
But I wrote this song, To try and make it up to you.
