...or, as my pyrate mates would sing...(and this is long - sorry - we tend to get carried away at our parties)...
THE BIRTHDAY DIRGE
(performed slowly with ponderous drumbeats)
Happy Birthday! <thud!> Happy Birthday! <thud!>
1. Now you've aged another year
Now you know that Death is near
Happy Birthday! <thud!> Happy Birthday! <thud!>
2. Children dying far and near
They say that cancer's caused by beer
3. Death, destruction, and despair
People dying everywhere
4. Typhoid, plague and polio
Coffins lined up in a row
5. Now that you're the age you are
Your demise cannot be far
Other Common Verses:
6. Black Death has just struck your town
You yourself feel quite run-down
7. Birthdays come but once a year
Marking time as Death draws near
8. Long ago your hair turned grey
Now it's falling out, they say
The Viking/Barbarian Verses:
9. Burn the castle and storm the keep
Kill the women, but save the sheep
10. Burn, then rape by firelight
Add _romance_ to life tonight
11. Indigestion's what you get
From the enemies you 'et
12. May the candles on your cake
Burn like cities in your wake.
13. May the children in the street
Be your barbequeing meat
13a. We love children, yes we do
Baked or broiled or in a stew
14. May your deeds with sheep and yaks
Equal those with sword and axe
15. They stole your sword, your gold, your house
Took your sheep but not your spouse
16. This one lesson you must learn
First you pillage, then you burn
17. While you eat your birthday stew
We will loot the town for you,
18. We brought linen, white as cloud
Now we'll sit and sew your shroud
19. You're a period cook, its true
Ask the beetles in the stew
20. Your servants steal, your wife's untrue
Your children plot to murder you
Other Verses:
21. Just be glad the friends you've got
Haven't found out you-know-what
22. I'm a leper, can't you see
Have a birthday kiss from me
23. It's your birthday never fear
You'll be dead this time next year
24. Now another year has passed
Don't look now they're gaining fast!
25. Now you've lived another year
Age to you is like stale beer
26. Now your jail-bait days are done
Let's go out and have some fun
27. See the wrinkles on your face
Like the pattern of fine lace
28. Were I sitting in your shoes
I'd go out and sing the blues
29. So you're 29 again
Don't tell lies to your good friend
30. You must marry very soon
Baby's due the next full moon
31. When you've reached this age you know
That the mind is first to go
Happy Birthday, this is a great time of life. I'm not quite 60 but I can see it from here. The key is to enjoy every day and give your wife the benifit of the doubt. Our lives get too busy and we need to make each day special for the people we love.

I think my wife even forgot about it until her mom reminded her of it last night.
Sorry. I'm kinda bummed right now. Needed to vent....or a pat on the back or something.
Make it the best year of your life. You deserve it!
Happy Belated Birthday!!
