Intro: / G - - - / - - - - /
(2)
Once a year we celebrate
With stupid hats and plastic plates
(2)
The fact that you were able to make
(hold)
Another trip around the sun
(2)
And the whole clan gathers round
And gifts and laughter do abound
(2)
And we let out a joyful sound
(hold)
And sing that stupid song
(2)
Happy birthday! Now you re one year older!
(2)
Happy birthday! Your life still isn t over!
Happy birthday! You did not accomplish much
(2)
But you didn t die this year
I guess that s good enough
/ G - - - / - - - - / C - - - / G (hold) /
(2)
So let s drink to your fading health
And hope you don t remind yourself
(2)
The chance of finding fame and wealth
(hold)
Decrease with every year
(2)
Does it feel like you re doing laps
And eating food and taking naps
(2)
And hoping that someday perhaps
(hold)
Your life will hold some cheer
(2)
Happy birthday! What have you done that matters?
(2)
Happy birthday! You re starting to get fatter
Happy birthday! It s downhill from now on
(2)
Try not to remind yourself
Your best years are all gone
/ G - - - / - - - - / C - - - / G (hold) /
(2)
If cryogenics were all free
Then you could live like Walt Disney
(2)
And live for all eternity
(hold)
Inside a block of ice
(2)
But instead your time is set
This is the only life you get
(2)
And though it hasn t ended yet
(hold)
Sometimes you wish it might
(2)
Happy birthday! You wish you had more money
(2)
Happy birthday! Your life s so sad it s funny
Happy birthday! How much more can you take?
(2)
But your friends are hungry
So just cut the stupid cake
(2) (2)
Happy birthday! Happy birthday!
(2) (2)
Happy birthday, dear...
