(Roy Kitson)

Well I know where you're going and who's gonna meet you there

I know how late you'll be coming home but guess who doesn't care

Tonight I'll step out too and since I won't be here

Happy birthday merry Christmas and happy New Year

My best wishes may be early but I'm not sticking around

To bake a cake for your birthday while you're out turnin' around

She can help you celebrate may she bring you lots of cheer

Happy birthday merry Christmas and happy New Year

Now I've made my mind up late second's long enough

You think I don't mean it so you're gonna cold my blood

But I'll be busy packing while you're holding her near

Happy birthday merry Christmas and happy New Year

My best wishes may be early...

Happy birthday merry Christmas and happy happy New Year
