Happy Birthday - Ryan Adams, The Cardinals

I told everybody I was late

But I was hiding in the back

Hiding in the back, my hands, they shake

Happy birthday, I’m your birthday cake

And I’m lit and I’m late

And I’m tired, I tried to escape

From the fact that I’m tied

I was wrong, you were right

I was wrong, you were right

Happy birthday

I told everybody I was clean

But I had clouds in my bath

Listenin' to music, reading poetry

Nodding off and nearly drownin' myself

But it’s clear, you’re clearly upset

Wanna smoke, my smokes are all wet

I’ve got two and both of them lit

Happy birthday

Happy birthday

Happy birthday

Happy birthday

Happy birthday

I’m your birthday cake and I’m lit
