It's your birthday
You don't have to do nothing

The time has come, and it's finally here
Have a candlelit dinner
Or just settle down, my dear
Whatever you like, boy
It's all up to you
We can celebrate, baby
'Cause-

It's your birthday

Now close your eyes, babe
Listen to the melody
Anything you want, my sweet
Just ask me
It's the day for us to share
So leave your problems up to me
Let's start, you and me
And make this day history

It's your birthday (and we could spend time together)
We gon' celebrate (you and me)
It's your birthday (so baby, blow out the candles)
We gon' celebrate (you know)
It's your birthday

I'm sending out invitations
To let all your friends know that (it's your birthday)
But all that I really wanna do
Is wrap you up and get in the groove
And keep you all to myself (it's your birthday)

Now the mood is right now
And you don't have to fantasize
All your dreams could come true
But it's up to you
If you can't decide, boy
Just give me all your mind (I've got a surprise)
A present that you'll like

It's your birthday (and we could spend time together)
We gon' celebrate (you and me)
It's your birthday (baby, blow out the candles)
We gon' celebrate (you know)
It's your birthday

It's your birthday
You don't have to do nothing
It's your birthday
It's your birthday
You don't have to do nothing
It's your birthday (it's your birthday)
It's your birthday
You don't have to do nothing

We gon' celebrate
It's your birthday (it's your birthday)
It's your birthday (We're gonna celebrate this evenin')
You don't have to do nothing
we gon' celebrate (so blow out the candles)
It's your birthday
It's your birthday (it's your birthday)
It's your birthday (it's your birthday, baby)
You don't have to do nothing
We gon' celebrate (celebrate, ooh)
It's your birthday
It's your birthday (it's your birthday)
You don't have to do nothin' (it's your birthday, babe, babe)
We should celebrate
It's your birthday

Happy birthday, baby

It's your birthday
It's your birthday
You don't have to do nothin'
We gon' celebrate
It's your birthday
It's your birthday (it's your birthday)
You don't have to do nothin'
We gon' celebrate
It's your birthday
It's your birthday (it's your birthday)
You don't have to do nothin'
We gon' celebrate
It's your birthday
