Many Happy Returns 歌詞

When I accepted this job I was resigned to my fate When I got there early Shed arrive late You can say shes gone forever Or just sit tight and wait She said I was unprincipled That I was not the first Like the phoenix coming back From the ashes, uh-huh I know whats good, But I know what trash is In the head-lights, In the highlights of her hair... Hit the head lines But she's not there: Many happy returns Many happy returns These are the lessons I could have learned Return. many happy returns And these are the letters I should have burned Okay, I'm sad, not blue Okay, remember All that matters to me now Is the message I sent her Like the world, spinning round On its axis, uh-huh I know democracy But I know whats fascist When she's gone, all I got to learn Is the law of diminishing return When shes here, one thing I've found Things get better second time around Many happy returns Many happy returns These are the lessons I could have learned Return. many happy returns And these are the letters I should have burned Okay I'm sad, not blue Okay, remember All that matters to me now Is the message I sent her Now she's gone, she's gone away Now she's gone forget her Coming back another day If youd only let her Now she's gone, she's gone away But she's gone forget her Coming back another day So why resurrect her? Many happy returns Many happy returns These are the lessons I could have learned Return. many happy returns And these are the letters I should have burned
