Happy birthday Nicola
My regards to your mother
Happy birthday Nicola
May you have many others
You don't know me
But I've watched you grow breasts from afar
For so long
[Chorus]
Listen to the old generation
We are here to help you through
If you need some information
I can help you
Listen to the old generation
We are here to help you through
If we'd used some contraception
I wouldn't be here, and you wouldn't be you
Long ago
There was a club in the city centre
Long ago
In the bar that's where I met her
But I never thought I'd see
What I have in front of me....today
[Chorus]
Here's to the children
Of fumbling in the dark
Underneath the piles of coats
Behind the railings in the park
I was so eager to be a man
That I really couldn't see
You'd be asking me one day for a lifetime of love
And 16 years of pocket money
Happy birthday Nicola
Happy birthday Nicola
Happy birthday Nicola
Happy birthday Nicola
[Chorus]
