A very very Happy Birthday wish
from They Might Be Giants to you!

Here is a song for you from us, for every other day of your life

IT'S NOT MY BIRTHDAY
from They Might Be Giants album Lincoln


Well, the rain falls down without my help I'm afraid
And my lawn gets wet though I've withheld my consent
When this grey world crumbles like a cake
I'll be hanging from the hope
that I'll never see that recipe again

As I walk, I think about a new way to walk
As I think, I'm using up the time left to think
and this train keep rolling off the track
trying to act like something else
trying to go where it's been uninvited

It's not my birthday
It's not today
It's not my birthday,
so why do you lunge out at me?
When the word comes down
never more will be around
Though I'll wish you were there,
I was less than we could bear
and I'm not the only dust my mother raised
I'm not the only dust my mother raised
