This song is a reference to Giovanni Boccaccio’s story “Federigo’s Falcon”. I compare myself to Federigo degli Alberighi, a man who squanders his wealth in an attempt to gain the affection of a beautiful woman, Monna Giovanna (represented by Maggie).
[Victor]
Take you to school dances
5 bucks for a pair
Nicely combed hair
Wearing shirts I never wear
Acting like a gentleman
Holding doors & pulling out your chair
To show the stuff I’d do for you
And show you that I care
1.08 For a taco
I could have spent that on myself
But I used that on you
To make you happy because that’s how I felt
30 bucks towards a new phone
I bought you perfume by Lady Gaga
But it came with lotion & shower gel
You deserved the whole enchilada
Took money meant for me
And spent it all on you
In hope you’d feel for me
How I feel for you, too
You've done near left me broke
Couple dollars & a dime
But I’ll spend both my money & time
Just for you to become mine
[Hook]
I’ll never give up
Even after rejection
I’d go to great lengths
Just to gain your affection
To be with you
I’ll make the ultimate sacrifice
I’ll kill my falcon to feed you a worthy meal
If that’s the price
