Happy Birthday

Lyrics

(Carly Simon)
 It's all of our birthdays this summer
 One number older, another year younger
 I'll go to your party, you'll come to mine
 We've given up cigarettes, we've given up wine
 We've given up caffeine and sworn off desserts
 I don't try to seduce you, we don't even flirt
 We're too good to be happy, too straight to be sad
 So just blow out the candles, Happy Birthday
 Stay out of the ocean, stay out of the sun
 Stay in perfect shape and be number one
 We've got brilliant excuses for having no fun
 So blow out the candles, Happy Birthday
 Make love in the microwave
 Think of all the time you'll save
 And don't forget to make it look
 As though you're working very very hard
 But I'll be your lover if you will be mine
 We'll go back to the garden and have a good time
 And if I'm offered an apple, I'll politely decline
 And just blow out the candles
 Happy Birthday
