Birthday Song

One day you’ll need someone to dress you
You’ll be spilling food down on your face
The next day a priest will God bless you
And it won’t mean that you sneezed

And the time in between
Is lost like a dream
Your melancholy mood comes too late
So pick that old ass of yours up off the floor
For tonight we celebrate

And the years go by
And we don’t know where they went
We just let them fly
Cuz they all were heaven sent
We’re on borrowed time
And we still owe half the rent
For soaking up the sunshine

Till we’re dead and gone
We will laugh until we drop
Here’s your birthday song
May your party never stop
Singing on and on
We go stumbling down the block
Soaking up the good wine

We’re covered in silver confetti
There’s bottles all over the floor
Just cuz your bank account’s empty
It don’t mean that you’re poor

Cuz it’s night like just this
Make me feel like I’m rich
Like the fire still burns in my core
So raise that old glass of yours
Up towards the sky
We’re not counting anymore

And the years go by
And we don’t know where they went
We just let them fly
Cuz they all were heaven sent
We’re on borrowed time
And we still owe half the rent
For soaking up the sunshine

Till we’re dead and gone
We will laugh until we drop
Here’s your birthday song
May your party never stop
Singing on and on
We go stumbling down the block
Soaking up the good wine

And the years go by
And we don’t know where they went
We just let them fly
Cuz they all were heaven sent
We’re on borrowed time
And we still owe half the rent
For soaking up the sunshine

Till we’re dead and gone
We will laugh until we drop
Here’s your birthday song
May your party never stop
Singing on and on
We go stumbling down the block
Soaking up the good wine
