Carly Simon - Happy Birthday lyrics

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 just 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

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

So just blow out the candles

Happy Birthday
