Happy Birthday, You're Turning 40 lyrics

Happy Birthday, you're turnin' 40

You're discoverin' it feels different than 30

You've been makin' mentals checklists 

Of things you meant to do and see

It's the same list you had at 23

Happy Birthday, you're turnin' 40

You've been actin' more and more just like your Uncle Marty

You have reached the stage in life where it's half over

Yes, it's true

If you're lucky, give or take a year or two

Happy Birthday, there's no use denyin'

You have entered middle ages without tryin'

There is no use sittin' round and cryin'

If it bothers you a lot to tell your age, start lyin'

Happy Birthday, there's no use denyin'

You have entered middle ages without tryin'

There is no use sittin' round and cryin'

If it bothers you a lot to tell your age, start lyin'

Happy Birthday, there's no use denyin'

You have entered middle ages without tryin'

There is no use sittin' round and cryin'

If it bothers you a lot to tell your age, start lyin'

Happy Birthday, you're turnin' 40

Lookin' in the mirror, all you can say is "Lordy!"

Well, other than the things that happened to your body

Ah, forget it, have some fun

We can tackle that when you turn 41

Happy Birthday [x6]
