Despair, for it's your birthday.

My sister Rachel and my friend, Heidi M, have birthdays today. And just so I don't have to send out two seperate songs, I'll put it right up on my blog. (No, I lied. I just put it up here because I wanted to show everyone the amusing lyrics I got off of this one SCA filk website.)

Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday,

It's your birthday; never fear,
You'll be dead this time next year,

Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday,

People living in despair,
Children dying everywhere,

Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday,

Typhoid, plague and polio,
Coffins lined up in a row,

Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday,

One year closer to death,
When you'll draw your final breath,

Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday,

The many candles on your cake,

Burn as a bomb's destructive wake,

Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday,

Your neighbors steal, your man's untrue,
Your children plot to murder you,

Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday,

Your daughter's face could crack a mirror,
Your eldest son is acting queer,

Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday,

(...and because Heidi's turned 18.)

Now your jail-bait days are done,
Let's go out and have some fun!

Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday.
