  • Song Lyrics:
    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday to you
    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday to you

    Well, it's time to celebrate your birthday; it happens every year
    We'll eat a lot of broccoli and drink a lot of beer
    You should be good and happy that there's something you can eat
    A million people every day are starving in the street

    Your daddy's in the gutter with the wretched and the poor
    Your mama's in the kitchen with a can of Cycle Four
    There's garbage in the water
    There's poison in the sky
    I guess it won't be long before we're all gonna die

    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday to you
    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday to you

    Well, what's the matter little friend; you think this party is the pits
    Enjoy it while you can; we'll soon be blown to bits
    The monkeys in the Pentagon are gonna cook our goose
    Their finger's on the button; all they need's a little juice

    It doesn't take a military genius to see
    We'll all be crispy critters after World War III
    There's nowhere you can run to, nowhere you can hide
    When they drop the big one, we all get fried

    (Come on boys and girls, sing along, ok?)

    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday to you
    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday to you
    wow! (background screaming, sound effect)

    Well there's a punk in the alley and he's looking for a fight
    There's an Arab on the corner buying everything in sight
    There's a mother in the ghetto with another mouth to feed
    Seems that everywhere you look today there's misery and greed

    I guess you know the Earth is gonna crash into the sun
    But that's no reason why we shouldn't have a little fun
    So if you think it's scary, if it's more than you can take
    Just blow out the candles and have a piece of cake

    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday to you
    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday to you
    wow!

    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday to you
    Happy birthday
    Happy birthday to you

    (Happy Birthday!)

    And a pinch to grow an inch!
    (Sonic SBL)
