VERSE 1
Happy, happy birthday, my friend
There’s a line around the block, and it don’t look like it ends
It leads to your back door
Everybody wants in, that’s for sure
Singing, “Happy, happy birthday, my friend”
VERSE 2
We all wanna get inside, to give you a hug
Those sparkles in your eyes, are reflections of our love
This party’s gonna never end,
Tambourine dancing with all your friends
“Happy, happy, happy birthday, my friend”
BRIDGE
There’s a simple reason why, we’re all here
To share the joy we feel, that’s so very clear
So, close your eyes and make your wishes
They’ll come back as a zillion kisses
“Happy, happy birthday, my friend”
VERSE 3
So, let’s gather round and sing it, one more time
About the fun we have, and all our happy times
You make our dreams come true
So, we found a way to give ‘em back to you
Singing, “Happy, happy, birthday, my friend!
END BRIDGE/CHORUS
There’s a line of people, wrapped around the block
The door’s wide open, no need to knock
The cowbell’s never gonna stop
So, come down and come on in
Raise your voices, let the singing begin
Happy, happy, birthday
Happy, happy, birthday
Happy, happy, birthday, my friend!
Happ, Happ, Happ, Happy Birthday
Happ, Happ, Happ, Happy Birthday
Happ, Happ, Happ, Happy Birthday!
