Birthday Party
There is so much to plan
With so many things to do
Organizing a surprise Birthday Party
So they haven't got a clue
A venue chosen and since reserved
The guest list checked and written
Invitations printed and sent
There's no time for indecision
A theme had been selected
Superheros' would reign that night
Decorating would be easy
Balloons that are nice and bright
Entertainment will be a live band
They're friends of the Birthday surprise
They insisted that they do it
Promising to play a lot of jive
A cake has been pre-ordered
To be picked up on the day
This Birthday Bash it was now planned
Let the celebrations get under way
The following Saturday it was booked
A Birthday that won't be forgot
Decorating complete, band in place
Food, drinks and cake from the shop
A ride has already been pre-arranged
Guests arrived earlier on the day
The music stopped and the lights went dim
Then everyone yelled 'Surprise Happy Birthday'
Well he was in total shock
He'd never suspected a thing
We'd managed to achieve what we'd planned
A Birthday fit for a king!
