lyrics

I guess this means you're home alone on your birthday.
A little bird tells me you're feeling a birthday shade of blue.
Well, I see it's true. Well, well. It's a good thing that I found you.

Hey, celebrate, it's your birthday!
We'll go out and buy you a big cake.
You'll say all the things you want to say.
No need to hold back, it's your birthday.
Say what you want—it's your birthday.

This day comes but once a year. Who made such a silly rule?
And if it seems too much to bear, then I declare
Tomorrow will be another birthday for you.

Hey, come on out, it's your birthday!
No need to hide inside—you're famous.
Have another drink. It's on us. No one's watching you now.
Do what you want, it's your birthday.
And many, many, many, many, many more.
