Beep beep, you and the crew, hold it Yeah, that's us, we're bad. We're back And we want ya'll to know, we're all getting into a birthday thing Now I want everybody to put your hands up into the air if you got a birthday Now I don't care if it already came or if it already done pa**ed Everybody say, Happy (Happy) birthday (Birthday) Goody, goody, oh my god, oh my god Happy birthday baby, party, party, party Hey ya'll, we're having a ball I hope you're doing fine Because any time is a happy time for a birthday party rhyme Everybody get up Hey ya'll, I'm having a ball I hope you're doing fine Because any time is a happy time for a birthday party rhyme Hit it [Verse 1] You don't need no invitation There's a party going on throughout the nation Don't get excited but it's gonna be The best birthday party in history We're gonna celebrate the gift of birth The living j**el of planet Earth So come on, come all to the birthday ball Every day this spring, summer, winter and fall From dusk 'till dawn, from dawn 'till dusk If the crowd don't get you, the music must Cause it's jam packed from back to back You're in, you're out, cause you like it like that Let's rock, let's rock and rock Don't stop Pat your foot and let your fingers pop I wanna hear you loud and clear Say, "Hell yeah" (Hell yeah) Everybody say, "One" (One), Flash, one time Say, "Two" (Two), Flash, two times Say, "Three" (Three), Flash, three times Say, "Four" (Four), Flash, five times All the guys better find a girl Cause if you stay apart We're gonna move the groove until we prove That we're gonna shake you, break your heart All the girls better find a guy All the guys better find a girl Cause we're gonna hip and hop til we hit the top Cause we gonna rock and shock the whole world Melle Mel gonna make you yell And I'm Mr. Ness, gon' make you shout the best Rahiem gon' make you scream scream scream Creole gonna make you rock and roll Cowboy gonna make you jump for joy And Flash gonna cut the cut so fast But those of you who remember the line Help me finish the rhyme -- c'mon y'all We gonna try something new What you gonna do?
