Happy Birthday Emily

My friend Emily’s birthday is next Tuesday, and I am to poor to buy her a present so I wrote her a song. I play this on a little chezzy song on the piano, excuse me the keyboard. I like to pretend that it is a nice eight-eight key piano, but it is only forty keys. But, pretending makes it better. Anyway, I thought I share the lyrics:

Happy Birthday Emily
It is your special day.
Today is the day that you turn twenty. (You say twenty with an A sound so it rhymes. I’m not a Dr. Seuss; I’m not that great at rhyming.)
So do something wise with it
Get really wasted
You have a reason to get obliterated.
And no one can tell you no
Because you’re the birthday girl
And today you’ll shine brighter
Than a pretty pearl.
Happy Birthday Emily
Happy Birthday to you.
Happy Birthday Emily
And may all your wishes come true.

Of course only virgin margaritas will be served at her birthday party, we do not really drink. I just thought it would be funny in the song. Anyway, I hope that she likes it but I figured it is better than a store bought item. I always like things my friends make me instead of buying me something. This is because something they make can not be bought in stores.
