Picture taken on lamp post near Kennington tube station.
I do an anti-valentine's every year. Don't tell my husband :) I usually do a valentine's song as well, but I have run out of time this weekend and I'm not back at my computer until Sunday.

No idea what the QR code in the picture links to - couldn't get it to work on my phone. I would say "if you can, let me know", but in all honesty I would rather not know, given where it was taken. It might be an invite to something insalubrious.

Lyrics

Don’t fall in love - It’s not a trap
But it’s undeniably crap
Too easy to get lost in and
It don’t come with a map.

Don’t fall in love, you’re not above it
Don’t fall in love, you’ll likely love it

Don’t fall in love - though not a trick,
Its sleight of hand will make you sick
And nauseous to the stomach,
Spend your whole life flummoxed.

Don’t fall in love, you’re not above it
Don’t fall in love, you will likely love it

Don't fall in love, while not a crime
You will end up doing hard time
for a crime you did not commit
Your punishment - constant stick

Don’t fall in love, says so on the poster
Likely printed and put up by some joker
Promoting night at club I will never go to
I don’t do QR codes, so I’ll never know

Don’t fall in love.

I like the demented tonight you've got going on there. Kind of adds to the wise words of the song. Great stuff! Forget valentines is what I say!
