Charles Manson's Birthday

by Otis Ball

from _I'll Love You Til I Don't_,

on Bar/None



It's Charles Manson's birthday, nobody's there

I tried to have a party - does anyone care?

A bag of balloons

A bucket of beer

One funny hat --

Nobody's here

(except me)



It's Charles Manson's birthday, so I sent a card

He doesn't have a lightbulb, but he can read it in the yard

What do you get for a

Psychotic guy

Who's stuck in prison

And can't get high?



Maybe next year I'll advertise in a college paper

If a girl shows up, we won't rape her

We'll hide the knives; we'll hide the gun

I sure hope Charlie still has fun



It's Charles Manson's birthday, no-one bought a gift

If I were Charlie Manson, well I'd be pretty miffed

None of the Beatles

None of the Stones

Sent him a letter

Or bothered to phone



Squeaky had a baby and its head popped off

Squeaky had a baby and its head popped off

Squeaky had a baby and its head popped off

Squeaky had a baby and its head popped off
