Indignity Imagined Valerie

Imagine the indignity suffered

Whilst being told by someone

Not in the know

Why you are covering another
artist's song

Because they would never
believe

I wrote Valerie

Not Amy

Although she got to No 1 and
ended up becoming famous
for it

And i only got it to No 24 in the
charts

Never became famous and why
apart from Google No 1 knows
my name
