Once a year we celebrateWith stupid hats and plastic platesThe fact that you were able to makeAnother trip around the sunAnd the whole clan gathers roundAnd gifts and laughter do aboundAnd we let out a joyful soundAnd sing that stupid songHappy birthday!Now you're one year older!Happy birthday!Your life still isn't over!Happy birthday!You did not accomplish muchBut you didn't die this yearI guess that's good enoughSo let's drink to your fading healthAnd hope you don't remind yourselfThe chance of finding fame and wealthDecrease with every yearDoes it feel like you're doing lapsAnd eating food and taking napsSongtexteAnd hoping that someday perhapsYour life will hold some cheerHappy birthday!What have you done that matters?Happy birthday!You're starting to get fatterHappy birthday!It's downhill from now onTry not to remind yourselfYour best years are all goneIf cryogenics were all freeThen you could live like Walt DisneyAnd live for all eternityInside a block of iceBut instead your time is setThis is the only life you getAnd though it hasn't ended yetSometimes you wish it mightHappy birthday!You wish you had more moneyHappy birthday!Your life's so sad it's funnyHappy birthday!How much more can you take?But your friends are hungrySo just cut the stupid cakeHappy birthday!Happy birthday!Happy birthday, dear...
