Twenty five trips ´round the sun I don´t know how but I´m still holding on Must have a rocket ship bringing me home But I never asked for an open return
´Cause life has a funny way to make sure you learn that The more you desire, oh, the less you deserve And I´m just try´na get by slow and steady But someone blew my birthday candles out and I wasn´t ready
Twenty-four hours ago I was the oldest that I´d ever known I´d go back given half the chance But why do I think like that when I know I can´t?
This life ain´t a computer game, there ain´t no control One day time´s on your side then you´ve missed half the show And now I´m on the way out of my twenties Got so many birthday candles that my lungs feel heavy
I´ve said it so many, many times I´m on the wrong side of twenty, twenty five Am I being petty or petrified? On the wrong side of twenty, twenty five I´ve said it so many, many times (Many times) I´m on the wrong side of twenty, twenty five (Ooh) Am I being petty or petrified? (Am I being petty, yeah-yeah) On the wrong side of twenty, twenty five (Twenty five)
3, 2, 1 Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you Happy birthday dear Grace Happy birthday to you
