Happy 50th
Well how do you feel, now that you're over the hill
you know that you're now well past your prime
happy birthday to you, I wish you fifty more too
but remember, fifty years is quite a long time.
You're feeling as old as dirt, every body part hurts
only the hairs in your ears and nose grow
you think to yourself that you're as old as an elf
and you were forty just ten years ago.
Well don't feel so bad, there's no reason to be sad
it's not the end of the world, so don't pout
please for goodness sake, enjoy your cake
and make sure to blow all fifty candles yout.
You shouldn't have fear because fifty is here
just relax and make sure you have fun
enjoy life instead of acting half dead
besides, this time next year, you'll be 51.
So happy fiftieth to you, I hope I reach fifty too
and remember, it could always be worse
be as happy as you can, that you drive your own new sedan
instead of being a passenger, in the back of a hearse.
