Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
You're on your own
You check your phone
And the clock says 12:02
I wish you a merry birthday
A warm custard and cherry birthday
Happy birthday to you
What friends you'd have
Around your flat
If you hadn't systematically alienated each and every single one
Can you remember how sweet and pure she was
Before you dictated every aspect of her life
Well now she's someone else's wife
So happy birthday to you
Can't it be the worst day
Your birthday
Just a marker of a lap around the sun
You were here before, when you were four
When they handed out fairy bread to everyone
And so you wonder just how it could be possible
That your life has come to a head
While you're a grown man craving fairy bread
So happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
