Surprise Party
We spent all month planning
The perfect surprise for you
Conspiring with your family and friends
To keep you from getting a clue
Keeping all this from you
Has been actually pretty hard
You always seem so aware of things
Never letting down your guard
With all of this excitement
It is you I wish I could tell.
But I’m so excited to see your face
When “Surprise!” is what we’ll yell
When you see all the streamers
And balloons all over the place
The beaming look I hope to see
Appear upon your face
The time and date have come for you
to walk through the front door
“Surprise!” we yell as loud as we can
Then stunned, you hit the floor.
