Happy Birthday — Carly Simon

Its all of our birthdays this summer One number older, another year younger Ill go to your party, youll come to mine Weve given up cigarettes, weve given up wine Weve given up caffeine and sworn off desserts I dont try to seduce you, we dont even flirt Were 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 Weve got brilliant excuses for having no fun So blow out the candles, Happy Birthday

Make love in the microwave Think of all the time youll save And dont forget to make it look As though youre working very very hard

But Ill be your lover if you will be mine Well go back to the garden and have a good time And if Im offered an apple, Ill politely decline And just blow out the candles Happy Birthday
