Sorting Things Out

"Everything has been so strange. I think my family changed.
The little place I used to live seems somehow re-arranged."

"I think that I agree with you, whoever you may be,
It looks like how we sort this out depends on you and me."

"Well, I could use a brother, cause I miss my folks a lot,
And I’d like a friend beside me when I’m sleeping on the cot."

"I’m rather independent, but I’ll go along with that,
By the way, just so you’ll know. You’re a dog, and I’m a cat."

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE! We're having chocolate cake with chocolate icing this morning, AND lemon bars! Come on over, we've killed the cake, but there are plenty of lemon bars!

You say it's your birthday
It's my birthday too--yeah

We're gonna have a good time
I'm glad it's your birthday
Happy birthday to you.

Yes we're going to a party party
Yes we're going to a party party
Yes we're going to a party party.

I would like you to dance--Birthday
Take a cha-cha-cha-chance-Birthday
I would like you to dance--Birthday

You say it's your birthday
Well it's my birthday too--yeah
You say it's your birthday
We're gonna have a good time

At last--Today's your Special Day!
The World all stops to shout hooray!
We wish you peace and joy and fun
Today you're the exalted one.
So have a drink or a cigar,
Go to the beach or buy a car.
And cut a piece of chocolate cake
Just after a big juicy steak.
And everywhere you go today
The crowds will part, as people say,
"Oh bliss, oh glee, oh happy whirl!"
And thrill to see the birthday girl!
So dance and sing and have a ball!
A Happy Birthday from us all!

Thank you Amy! There aren't any crowds, and if there were I don't think they would be parting, but it's a nice sentiment!

I wish I had a sister, I wish my folks weren't dead.
I wish the polls didn't show, John Kerry ahead.

But when I get discouraged, when I get down and blue,
I think of George Bush's courage, I know he'll pull us through.

But I wish I had a sister, I wish my folks weren't dead.
Cause I know who they'd vote for, George Bush would be ahead.

I don't know that I "deserve" the happiest birthday ever, but I'll take it!

You're too kind.
