The Birthday
My Birthday
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday, dear Carmen!
Happy Birthday to you!
Birthdays
Ogden Nash
My birthdays take so long to start,
They come along a year apart.
It's worse than waiting for a bus;
I fear I used to fret and fuss,
But now, when by impatience vexed,
Between one birthday and the next,
I think of all that I have seen
That keeps on happening in between.
The songs I've heard, the things I've done,
Make my un-birthdays not so un-.
Birthdays
Ogden Nash
Everything's been different
All the day long,
Lovely things have happened,
Nothing has gone wrong.
Nobody has scolded me,
Everyone has smiled.
Isn't it delicious
To be a birthday child?
