37

(album: No Country For Old Musicians - 2013)

So it's my birthday, but I'm not celebrating
There's monsters in my room and they're silently awaiting
See, they got permission to come and take a musician
And they decided on me after giving "Promo Copy" a listen
So I say...

La-la la-la, la-la la-la
La-la la-la, la-la la-la-la

So I get dressed and they profess, "It's nice to meet you
And by the way, happy birthday, we promise we won't eat you"
The super-fuzzy one says that I got time before we go
'Cause the other monsters are all buying pharmaceuticals in Mexico

They say they've come from a faraway land
And that they're here to start a band
And what a nice coincidence
That I can play lots of instruments
And I said, "Why can't you take Bruno Mars?"
And they said that they don't like Bruno Mars
And I said, "Everybody likes Bruno Mars"
They said they don't, and we started to sing

La-la la-la, la-la la-la
La-la la-la, la-la la-la-la

Underrated, overeducated
Well good luck getting shows in the monster universe
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

La-la la-la, la-la la-la
La-la la-la, la-la la-la-la

Hey hey, what do you say?
The monsters are coming to take me away on my birthday
