Death and gloom and black despair
People dying everywhere
Happy Birthday! (UHH!) Happy Birthday! (UHH!)

Now you are the age you are Your demise cannot be far May the candles on your cake burn like cities in your wake Burn the Castle and storm the keep Kill the Women but SAVE THE SHEEP! May your deeds with sheep and yaks equal those with sword and axe Your servants steal, your wife's untrue Your children plot to murder you They stole your gold, your sword, your house They stole your sheep, but not your spouse so you're 29 again don't tell lies to your good friend So another year has passed don't look now they're gaining fast! Black Death has just struck your town you yourself feel quite run-down We brought linen, white as cloud Now we'll sit and sew your shroud! So far death you have bypassed Don't look back it's gaining fast I'm a leper, can't you see Have a birthday kiss from me Burn, then rape by firelight Add -romance- to life tonight! Birthdays come but once a year, Marking time as Death draws near Now you've lived another year, And your death is drawing near. Raise your cup of bitter cheer, Make the barman eat his ear Fear and gloom and darkness but no one found out YOU KNOW WHAT You're a period cook, its true ask the beetles in the stew Now your jail-bait days are done let's go out and have some fun! |
 You must marry very soon baby's due the next full moon Were I sitting in your shoes I'd go out and sing the blues Tho you're turning 29 age to you is like fine wine Now you've lived another year age to you is like stale beer Long ago your hair turned grey now it's falling out, they say It's your birthday never fear You'll be dead this time next year See the wrinkles on your face Like the pattern of fine lace Indigestion's what you get From the enemies you 'et This one lesson you must learn FIRST you pillage, THEN you burn While you eat your birthday stew We will sack a town for you Death will come before the dawn Now's the time to party on! People starving on the earth, Go ahead, eat your dessert, Rape the horses while they sleep, See the women wail and weep |
Go away and stop this silly behaviour!
