 Happy happy oh my friend
 Blow out candles once again
 Leave the presents all inside
 Take my hand and let's take a ride
 
 Backwards down the number line
 You were eight and I was nine
 Do you know what happened then
 Do you know why we're still friends
 
 Laughing all these many years
 We've pushed through hardships tasted tears
 We made a promise one to keep
 I can still recite it in my sleep
 
 Every time a birthday comes
 Call your friend and sing a song
 Or whisper it in to his ears
 Or write it down just don't miss a year
 
 You decide what it contains
 How long it goes
 But this remains
 The only rule is it begins
 Happy happy oh my friend
 
 You decide what it contains
 How long it goes
 But this remains
 The only rule is it begins
 
 And all my friends come
 Backwards down the number line
 
 All my friends come
 Backwards down the number line
 
 All my friends come
 Backwards down the number line
 
 All my friends
 
 You decide what it contains
 How long it goes
 But this remains
 The only rule is it begins
 Happy happy oh my friend
 
 You decide what it contains
 How long it goes
 But this remains
 The only rule is it begins
 
 And all my friends come
 Backwards down the number line
