She wished him happy birthday\\
And he was glad to be alive\\
At the middle age of thirty\\
Although his badge said 'I am 5'\\
He hated his love handles\\
And his all over tan\\
He blew out the candles\\
And the party games began\\
\\
Someone starts the music\\
She passes the parcel\\
He tears off the paper\\
And he feels surrounded\\
If he stands on a chair\\
Then he'd be king of the castle\\
If he'd just stand up and be counted\\
\\
With me\\
\\
He met someone and got married\\
Left London for Paris\\
Stayed faithful and cheated\\
Ungrateful, mistreated\\
He let human nature take it's course\\
Trial separation and actual divorce\\
He put a big wooden sign\\
Outside the happy home\\
That said,\\
I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE\\
I JUST WANT TO BE ALONE\\
\\
Someone starts the music\\
She passes the parcel\\
You tear off the paper\\
And you feel surrounded\\
If you stand on a chair\\
Then you'd be king of the castle\\
If you'd just stand up and be counted\\
\\
With me\\
