The birthday song for mature audiences only. This is a new version of a favorite from way back.

lyrics

You say it’s my birthday
How did you know?
It’s my birthday, Baby
Just what did you get me?
Mmmmm…ohhh…

I guess all in all
It’s been a good day
Come over later, Baby
I have saved you some cake
Oooh…yeah…

And I know you’ve got a present for me
Put a ribbon on it
(Put a ribbon on it baby, on it baby)
Tie it in a bow
(Tie a ribbon on it baby…Tie it on)
Put a ribbon on it, Baby
And I’ll be waitin for that package
To explode…
Yeah

I guess all these candles
Have set me on fire
You know what I’m wishin for
Is all you desire…
Oooh…yeah…

And I know you’ve got a present for me
Put a ribbon on it
(Put a ribbon on it baby, on it baby)
Tie it in a bow
(Tie a ribbon on it baby…Tie it on)
Put a ribbon on it, Baby
And I’ll be waitin on that package
To explode…
Yeah
