You tell me on the phone, "Son, know your love is fierce
I know you care, even though you ain't here
It's not deliberate, you wouldn't be unkind
But out of sight means out of mind"
So I bought a book, wrapped it in cellophane
Put a ribbon 'round, it's a little game
Then I got a card and I signed your name
In case you forget again
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
I'm doing fine, even though you can't see
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
I'm doing fine, even though you can't see
So I got a daughter too, to remind you of your own
Complete with kids, like the one you left at home
Another hard-luck tear, or you'll adopt them too
Your latest model family when the real one ain't sewn
Call me ungrateful, oh, I don't mean to be hateful
But it's hard to have much confidence, it's true
When your life is your affection
All these folk with no connection
Don't mean blood, mean nothing to you
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
I'm fine, even though you can't see, even though
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
Yeah, I'm doing fine, even though you don't see
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Mmm-hmm
So I bought a book, wrapped it in cellophane
I put a ribbon 'round, it's a little game
Then I got a card and I signed your name
In case you forget again
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
I'm doing fine, even though you never see
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me
Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me
I'm doing fine, even though you don't
See, even though you don't see, no
Happy birthday to me
Ooh-ooh, yeah, yeah
Happy birthday to me
