each birthday is a victory (lizzy and mk)

each birthday is a victory (lizzy and mk)

backing vox throughout:
lizzy
lizzy and mk
each birthday
each birthday is a victory
but that ain't
it isn't, it wasn't what i meant to say
i mean to say
happy birthday

chris:
lizzy v and mk
you are presently with the ov in ca
as your emcee chirs v md
i recommend we proceed to party
can i get fifty cc's of hooray i'll need fifty cc's of hooray
i mean to say happy birthday

emilie:
we wear our shiny boots
we wear our panty hose
we wear our birthday suits
just beneath these clothes
and underneath all those we wear our flesh and bones
the sum of which compose our eternal souls
we grow old we grow old we wear our trousers rolled
but you know we know what the poet don't he meant to say happy birthday

jenny:
just do the shout and dance
and then turn around
then raise your hands
then put them down
and then make a face like your grading tests
and then tear them up
and now raise your fist
and just raise your voice
because we must be heard by the birthday boy and the birthday girl
we need to say happy birthday

robert:
we're going to rock it hard just to rock it soft
we're going to turn it on just to log it off
we're going to stand it up just to shut it down
we're going to right it just to turn it inside out
we're going to look it up to remove any doubt
we're going to hold it in and then we're going to shout it
what we mean to say happy birthday

the OV's request:

who is the imagined singer
A room full of people

who is the intended listener
lizzy and mk

ask three questions
we are having a birthday party for our dear friends lizzy and mk on 11/20/09. We would like a fist raising party anthem for the room to sing to them. we will get everyone to learn it!

describe your song in one word
do the shout and jump dance

  1. Ah this is so awesome! Wish I had realized it was here so I could have listened on my birthday! 50 ccs of hooray is an incredible lyric.
