CHORUS:
[D]Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!

It's time to [D]celebrate your birthday, it [A]happens every year
We'll eat a lot of broccoli, and [D]drink a lot of beer
You [G]should be good and happy that there's [D]somethin' you can eat
A [E]million people every day are [D]starvin' in the street

Your [D]daddy's in the gutter with the [A]wretched and the poor
Your mama's in the kitchen with a [D]can of Cycle Four
There's [G]garbage in the [D]water, there's [G]poison in the [D]sky
I [G]guess it won't be long before we're [D]all gonna die!

CHORUS

Well, what's the [D]matter, little friend, you think this [A]party is the pits?
Enjoy it while you can, we'll [D]soon be blown to bits!
The [G]monkeys in the Pentagon are [D]gonna cook our goose
Their [E]finger's on the button, all they [D]need is an excuse

It [D]doesn't take a military [A]genius to see
We'll all be crispy critters after [D]World War III
There's [G]nowhere you can [D]run to, [G]nowhere you can [D]hide
[G]When they drop the big one, we [D]all get fried

[NC]Come on, boys and girls, sing along, okay?

CHORUS

Well, there's a [D]punk in the alley, and he's [A]lookin' for a fight
There's an Arab on the corner buyin' [D]everything in sight
There's a [G]mother in the ghetto with a[D]nother mouth to feed
Seems that [E]everywhere you look today, there's [D]misery and greed
I [D]guess you know the Earth is gonna [A]crash into the sun
But that's no reason why we shouldn't [D]have a little fun
So [G]if you think it's [D]scary, if it's [G]more than you can [D]take
Just [G]blow out the candles and [D]have a piece of cake

CHORUS (x2)

And a pinch to grow an inch!
