Happy Birthday

I’ve tangled up your fishing lines,
Your rod is broken beyond repair
We’re sorry we can’t meet up with you
But still, we cut your hair!

We all love you very much
And I’m sure you know that
Sure, we’ll bake you a cake,
But it’ll be gone in 30 seconds flat

I’d like to say thank you
(I do show great gratitude)
For when we go to Belmont 16
And you pay for our food

We just want to say
Happy birthday to you
And when this is over ( which it won’t be)
We’ll take you to the zoo!
