The Two Sides of Monsieur Valentine - Spoon

Every morning I’ve got a new chance

I want to land the part of Eddie in The Stranger Dance

Because he gets to swordfight the duke, he kidnaps the queen

And you think the score’s set but you can’t truly see

'Til you know the two sides of Monsieur Valentine

'Til you know the two sides of Monsieur Valentine

Every morning, I pull on them pants

But I don’t get out so much since I acquired St. Vitus' dance

I turn the news on a while, I practice my scene

You think things are straight but they’re not what they seem

'Til you know the two sides of Monsieur Valentine

In his coat and his boots and his blackheart machine

No, no one knows the two sides of Monsieur Valentine, oh yeah

Every morning I’ve got a new chance

I want to play the part of Eddie in The Stranger Dance

He makes love to the duke, he swordfights the queen

He steals the whole show in his last dying scene

No one sees the two sides of Monsieur Valentine

No, no one sees the two sides of Monsieur Valentine

Oh, no one sees the two sides of Monsieur Valentine, oh yeah
