OK, Folks, you know the drill. Let’s gather in front of our large, 13″, Black and White TV set, and and watch as a tall, lanky man in a khaki uniform strides out, introduces himself as Sheriff John, and says:
“Today, we have two special young ladies for whom we have Happy Birthday wishes. For the first, a Ms. Barely Proper, we’ve invited some very special handsome young men (which we know she likes) to serinade her. Boys?”
From the wings come a funny looking group of three guys, and they sing:
| Once a year we celebrate With stupid hats and plastic plates The fact that you were able to make Another trip around the sun And the whole clan gathers round Happy birthday! |
So let’s drink to your fading health And hope you don’t remind yourself The chance of finding fame and wealth Decrease with every year Does it feel like you’re doing laps Happy birthday! |
If cryogenics were all free Then you could live like Walt Disney And live for all eternity Inside a block of ice But instead your time is set Happy birthday! |
Of course, we can no longer trust her. At least according to Jack Weinberg.
Sheriff John continues:
Now, for our second birthday girl, a Ms. Diva Steph. You hadn’t indicated a preference, but I didn’t feel the polka was right for you. So I rummaged around a bit, and found the following.
He pulls out his guitar, strums an “A” note, and sings:
| Ze hayom lachalom mitkansim beyachad
It’s a celebration ze ba li pa’am bashana Happy birthday to you chalomot yitgashmu Im nachgog venirkod ad haboker Happy birthday to you Yeladim mizdaknim od shana overet It’s a celebration ze ba li pa’am bashana Happy birthday to you chalomot yitgashmu Im nachgog venirkod ad haboker Happy birthday to you |
This is the day to dream we all get together
It’s a celebration it come once a year Happy birthday to you may your dreams come true We will celebrate and dance until morning comes Happy birthday to you Kids grow older another year passes It’s a celebration it come once a year Happy birthday to you may your dreams come true We will celebrate and dance until morning comes Happy birthday to you |
Happy birthday to both of you.
