lyrics

Birthdays

It's been a crummy birthday, the party was a flop
The gifts were really bad, I don’t like what I got
My parents got my list of everything I need
why was this the only list they didn’t read?
If kids are bad or good... lie tell the truth
Get 'em what they want, while they’re in their youth


(Chorus) Birthdays should be happy times
Get me what I want and I'll be just fine
I don't want hats socks and shoes or gloves
iphones, ipads, are how I spell love
Video games that crash and boom
An Entertainment Center in my room
Birthdays should be happy times
If I get what I want, we'll get along just fine

Mom. you could have given me a 10 speed bike
A TV in my room would have been real nice
Magicians and clowns would have been a nice touch
That would have said you love me very much
All we got to eat was pepperoni and cheese
You think that's a treat,… oh please

(Chorus)

I've had enough of you and your attitude
You're grounded for a week, how's that dude?

I was kidding mom, honest I was….what I meant to say was...

(Change of Chorus)
Birthdays should be happy times
Everything I got suited me just fine
iphones, ipads, are way too much
Shoes socks and gloves, now that spells love
Video games that crash and boom
That's way too loud for any room
Birthdays should be happy times
Here's my next year's list...oh, never mind
