Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Happy birthday, Buddha
Happy hunting, happy hiding, happy New Year
I hope you get yourself together
I hope your absence is made clear

I first learned
There was a value in a little subterfuge
From some old peeping Tom or another woman's refuge
Came in contact with a Svengali

He was housebound and unwell
Choked on a whale bone in a Cantonese restaurant
His nervous system had broken down
9 singing Buddhas
