Lahore
Happy birthday to you. How could it be true? You’re supposed to be (age or birthday boy or girl), but you act like you’re two.
I’m calling you up to inform you: My birthday’s been canceled today. I’m sorry to give such short notice. By my parents have said, “There’s no way!”
I wish for peace. I wish for knowledge. I wish my (brother/sister) would leave for college. Happy Birthday to Me!
If you follow all these rules, your birthday fun will double. And if you disobey them, you will be in lots of trouble.
If you get a gift you hate, remember not to swear. Do not cry when Grandma gives you purple underwear.
Don’t spill cake and ice cream on your sister’s brand-new dress. Do not start a food fight; you will have to clean the mess. Don’t try to pin the donkey tail on your fat uncle Fred. Don’t ask Auntie Jane’s new boyfriend when they plan to wed.
Don’t complain when Grandpa Gus gives you a birthday kiss. If you’re bothered by his beard, just dodge so he will miss.
Don’t invite your friends who haven’t learned to use the potty. Changing diapers, certainly, will drive your mother dotty.
One think about dear (name) that makes us very proud: When (he/she) throws a temper tantrum, (he/she) always draws a crowd.
(He/She) hasn’t made (his/her) bed or cleaned (his/her) room for several years. We called (his/her) room a pig pen, and (he/she) burst out into tears.
(He/She) didn’t go to school today. (He/She) missed a spelling test. They wouldn’t let (him/her) on the bus, because (he/she) wasn’t dressed.
In twenty years you will have money. In thirty years you will have fame. In forty years you will have gray hair and won’t even know your own name.
