The time has come for us to make good cheer,
To raise a glass, to raise our spirits high.
For now today we celebrate a birth
And happiness is seen in every eye.
I’m talking of a very special day
That only comes but once in every year.
We have cake; we have glasses filled with wine.
We have a cheerful song to fill your ear.
I’m talking about a birthday you fool!
You may not want to see it but it’s here.
And you should feel yourself lucky to see
A chance to celebrate another year.
Slap me down if I have gone on too long
Taking time to party is never wrong.
