OK, Folks, you know the drill. Allright everyone, let’s gather in front of our large, 13″, Black and White TV set, and watch as a tall, lanky man in a khaki uniform strides out, introduces himself as Sheriff John, and says: “This one is for you, kerinda. He pulls out his accordion, and starts singing the Birthday Cake Polka:
| Put another candle on my birthday cake We’re gonna bake a birthday cake Put another candle on my birthday cake I’m another year old today I’m gonna have a party with my birthday cake |
We’ll have some pie and sandwiches And chocolate ice cream too We’ll sing and play the day away And one more thing I’m gonna do I’ll blow out the candles on my birthday cake Happy Birthday to You |
He then turns to another child in the audience, and says, “I also understand it is klellingson‘s birthday. He’s made a special request for a round. So, those of you on the right, you’re in the “A” group. Those of you in the middle, you’re the “B” group. Those of you on the left, you’re the “C” group. Alright, “A” group, you start, followed by the “B”s and the “C”s. He plucks an “A” note, and sings:
We wish you a happy birthday
A joyous and celebrated birthday
For you Dear klellingson
We wish you a long long life
