A song for me on my Birthday!

Aug 29, 2006 08:21


Once a year we celebrate with stupid hats and plastic plates
The fact that I was able to make another trip around the sun
And the whole clan gathers round and gifts and laughter do abound
And we let out a joyful sound and sing that stupid song
Happy birthday! Now I'm one year older!
Happy birthday! My life still isn't over!
Happy birthday! I did not accomplish much
But I didn't die this year, I guess that's good enough
So let's drink to my fading health and hope I don't remind yourself
The chance of finding fame and wealth decrease with every year
It feels like Im doing laps and eating food and taking naps
And hoping that someday perhaps my life will hold some cheer
Happy birthday! What have I done that matters?
Happy birthday! I'm starting to get fatter
Happy birthday! It's downhill from now on
Trying not to remind myself my best years are all gone
If cryogenics were all free then I could live like Walt Disney
And live for all eternity inside a block of ice
But instead my time is set this is the only life I get
And though it hasn't ended yet ometimes I wish it might
Happy birthday! I wish I had more money
Happy birthday! My life's so sad it's funny
Happy birthday! How much more can I take?
But my friends are hungry, so i'll just cut the stupid cake
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday... TO ME!
