[Verse 1]
                   D                           A
Well, it's time to celebrate your birthday, it happens every year,
      A                         D
We'll eat a lot of broccoli and drink a lot of beer.
    G                  D                  G                 D
You should be good and happy that there's something you can eat,
  E                            A
A million people every day are starving in the street.
     D                              A
Your daddy's in the gutter with the wretched and the poor,
     A                            D
Your mama's in the kitchen with a can of Cycle Four.
        G              D              G             D
There's garbage in the water, there's poison in the sky,
  A                                   D   N.C.
I guess it won't be long before we're all gonna die!
 
[Chorus]
      D7        Gsus4 G Gadd9 G
Happy birthday!
      D7          Gsus4 G Gadd9 G
Happy birthday to you!
      D7        Gsus4 G Gadd9 G
Happy birthday!
      D7          Gsus4 N.C.
Happy birthday to you!
 
[Verse 2]
                 D                                    A
Well, what's the matter little friend, you think this party is the pits,
  A                           D
Enjoy it while you can, we'll soon be blown to bits.
    G              D            G              A
The monkeys in the pentagon are gonna cook our goose,
      E                                A                  G
Their finger's on the button, all they need is an excuse.
   D                       A
It doesn't take a military genius to see,
      A                            D
We'll all be crispy critters after World War III.
        G               D       G               D
There's nowhere you can run to, nowhere you can hide,
A                              D
When they drop the big one, we all get fried!
N.C.
Come on boys and girls, sing along, OK?
 
[Chorus]
      D7        Gsus4 G Gadd9 G

[Verse 3]
               N.C.
Well there's a punk in the alley and he's looking for a fight,
           N.C.
There's an Arab on the corner buying everything in sight.
          N.C.
There's a mother in the ghetto with another mouth to feed,
           N.C.                                         A      G
Seems that everywhere you look today there's misery and greed.
  D                                 A
I guess you know the Earth is gonna crash into the sun,
    A                                 D
But that's no reason why we shouldn't have a little fun.
   G                 D              G                 D
So if you think it's scary, if it's more than you can take,
     A                               Asus  A  D
Just blow out the candles and have a piece of cake!
 
[Chorus]
      D7        Gsus4 G Gadd9 G
Happy birthday!
      D7          Gsus4 G Gadd9 G
Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday!

Happy birthday to you!
      D7        Gsus4 G Gadd9 G
Happy birthday!
      D7          Gsus4 G Gadd9 G

N.C.
And a pinch to grow an inch!
