Many Happy Returns

By Spectrals

On Bad Penny

[Verse 1]

From dismal daily rhythm came a dizzy ritual

Stood waiting for your Ma to collect you

Wondering if she ever asked you

Who I was to you?

And wishing that I knew


[Verse 2]

Then smudging your birthday card

And thinking I didn't ought to have

Gotten you one in the first place

But hoping for many

Happy returns to you

Hoping for many happy returns to you


[Interlude]


[Verse 4 — Instrumental]


[Verse 5]

Delivering a brick to the window

Of a house that I resented

’Cause I thought you might have liked it

But probably without me in it

Probably without me in it


[Interlude]


[Verse 6]

And knowing I wasn't even close

To keeping you up on a night

But hoping that someday I might

And knowing I wasn't even close

To taking your fangs or even getting bitten
