Well I guess you'll have a blast
To celebrate your birthday
You know not every birthday
Has got a number so high

But you'd better act fast
Before this day comes 'round again
'Cause Death is waiting 'round the bend
And you have caught his eye

Although you're hardly worthwhile
'Cause squandered chances
Have pinned your prospects face down to the mat
Go on, observe your birth while
The void advances
And drown your sorrows in a pile
Of sugar, starch and fat

'Cause you get to have cake
You get to have cake
Because you get to have cake
You get to have cake cake cake

Baby
Dress all your guests in party hats
Because arrest of cardiac
Hasn't snuffed you out yet

Maybe
This year your emptiness will change
And all your kids won't be estranged
But that's an unsafe bet

Ask God 'bout sorrow
And God won't answer
There's far more holy crap to stress about
Oh baby, because tomorrow
Aggressive cancer
Will crash your birthday party
Just to blow your candles out

But you get to have cake
You get to have cake
Because you get to have cake cake cake
You get to have cake cake cake!
