I thought at first there had been a mistake,
When a car had dropped me off the cake,
And told me there was cause for celebration
I said mate youve got the wrong address
Im living with a world of stress
So remove the cake and all its connotations
He looked me squarely in the eyes
And have you ever wandered why?
The constitution has sunk below the belt
A cake my friend will make amends
For your disappointment or loss of friends
But the one I bring has been made with so much guile
I said I
Me oh my
A sense of humour is usually required
I said I
Oh me oh my
A sense of you is usually required
With that I thought I couldnt hear no more
So I took the cake and I shoved it all
In the place in the centre of my table
Before too long the sunken heart
Came up from our centre spot
Unto my head this thing I found able
To consider who would be so kind
To think of me in these worthwhile times
And how could I feign a true cause?
Ill take a slice and bag the rest
And send it to someone at best
Whose luck was worse than mine, but about to change
I said to occupy the thoughts of one
And to hold you merely as a son
Cannot be taken lightly or undone
A simply gesture such as this
Can raise you up and clear the mist
Should never be forgotten or dismissed

Am to fade
