birthday candles

it's her birthday today
an invitation has come my way!
ecstatic, elated and gay
oh, i wish it was my special day!

yay! mummy prettied me up
in light pink all, yeah 'sup!
can't wait to see the great goodies
the cake, the candles and candies!

though that birthday girl isn't me
an invited guest, that's all, gee!
oh well it doesn't matter, pfftsh
i just want to make a wish!

'pin the tail on eeyore'—
poor donkey, poked hard and sore!
but i don't really even care
we're going to cut the cake soon, yeah!

it's birthday cake time oh whee
birthday girl's wishing her little wishie!
i'm wishing mine too
hope that my wish will come true!

didn't you feel like this when you were a little kid? i do even now! so when we get the birthday cake in slices i poke a candle and sing to myself (:
