Lyrics of Happy Birthday by "Weird Al" Yankovic
chorus
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
verse
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
verse
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
chorus
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
verse
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 is an excuse
verse
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, okay?
chorus
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you (wow!)
verse
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
verse
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
chorus
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you (wow!)
chorus
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
outro
(Happy birthday!)
And a pinch to grow an inch!
Writer(s): Al Yankovic
