fascism fancy
stick a feather in your cap
smile and call it dandy
Take time
Don't lose yourself today, no
Make time
to let yourself slip away, now
And everyday that I follow
I try to realize
I'm doing what I have to
just to try to get by
And everyday that I swallow
another ounce of pride
I come home to my doorstep
And go back to my life
And everyday, everyday
It's night time
So go drink words with all your friends yeah
It's a great time
for you to show love to the world yeah
It's no use crying or throwing your tantrums
The ladies want a nice gentleman who looks handsome
Put a feather in your cap, step back
tilt your bottle back, love your bartender
Remember that.
There's no time for fightin
or cell phone drama, there's only time for lovin one another
If you agree throw your drink up with me
Here's a toast to tonight
when everything went right.
And everyday that I follow
I try to realize
I'm doing what I have to
just to try to get by
And everyday that I swallow
another ounce of pride
I come home to my doorstep
And go back to my life
And everyday, everyday.

"Simple Man"
I may never be the guy
that's the twinkle in your eye.
Nor that lucky fellow
that turns your legs to jello.
I won't ever be the chap
that's a feather in your cap.
Nor that good ole' bloke
you want to take home to your folks.
I know I'm not the dude
who can make you act the fool.
Nor that handsome man
that you have in your plans.......
But.....
I will always be the guy
of which you can rely.
That little lucky fellow
you share time with getting mellow.
I will always be the chap
who can handle all your crap
and hopefully that good ole' bloke
you can turn to when you're broke.
Perhaps I am a foolish dude.
I'll admit this may be true.
Just a simple man
that will always be your friend.....

Another year into your bag..
Is another feather in your cap..
A life of happiness and joy...
Awaits you eagerly..Oh Boy!!
You luck will shine like huge bright stars..
All planets will support..Saturn, Jupiter and Mars..
Long life, good heath and tonnes of wealth from now on..
Your sorrows and miseries will all be gone..
It’s a special day for you today...
Our wishes to you..We want to convey...
Away from you, we are a thousand miles..
We send you wishes, blessings and lot of smiles..
We remember you and miss you this day,
And wish you have a very special day..
Remember us on this special day..
We sing aloud “ HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!”
