Happy Birthday to Me
For my twenty-first birthday I went to a bar
The dancing room floor had rotating stars.
I had too much to drink, and acted like a fool
I went to sit down, and missed my stool.
I couldn't stand to shoot pool
But yet, I thought I looked cool.
I tried to act like a Romeo hunk
And, the girls laughed and said, "You're drunk."
Some of the gals danced on the table
I tried too but, my feet were not stable.
I fell on the floor
Then, I was escorted to the door.
I sang me, the Happy Birthday song
And, my friends sang along.
They kept asking me, "How much booze did you consume?"
And when they got me home, I danced with the broom.
The booze put my mouth in gear
And, my eyes over flowed with tears.
I went on a crying jag
And, later threw-up in a plastic bag.
The next day, I felt like I had jet lag.
My stomach did flip flops
And, all day I sipped on soda pop.
My head felt like it had been trampled on by a buffalo herd
And drinking, I'll leave that to the birds…
