Happy Birthday To Me Lyrics - Sesame Street

Maria: (in the bathtub) When it's my birthday, it really is great 

I pull up the covers and I sleep really late 

I'll take a nice hot bath with millions of bubbles 

I'll read a good book and forget all my troubles 

And that's my special way 

To spend my very special day 

And that's the way it's always gonna be 

When I say, "Happy Birthday to me!" 

(there is a knock at the door) Come in! 

(Luis comes in with a big birthday cake!) 

Big Bird: (by his nest, with Snuffy) When it's my birthday, I think that I'll spend 

The whole day out playing with my very best friend 

When I see lots of candles, I'll give a shout 

And I'll let my friend help me blow them out 

And that's my special way 

To spend my very special day 

And that's the way it's always gonna be 

When I say, "Happy Birthday to me!" 

(A bunch of kids come in with a birthday cake. Snuffy blows, and the kids and cake go flying. The cake splatters up against Big Bird's door.) 

Oscar: When it's my birthday, I hope that we get 

A cold rainy day so my presents get wet 

I'll put some extra fish on my birthday cake 

And tell all my friends to go jump in the lake 

(his grouch friends leave, tossing the yucky cake) 

And that's my special way, heh heh, 

To spend my very special day 

And that's the way it's always gonna be 

When I say, "Happy Birthday to me!" 

(goes back into trashcan, and the lid bangs him on his head) Ow! 

The Count: When it's my birthday, I never will fail 

To count all the cards that I get in the mail 

I count the cake and candles up on the shelf 

And count all the gifts that I give to myself 

One present, two presents, three presents, four presents, 

Five beautiful presents! 'A 'a 'a! (thunder and lightning) 

And that's my special way 

To spend my very special day 

And that's the way it's always going to be 

When I say happy, say happy, 

Say, "Happy Birthday to me!" 

Big Bird: To me! 

Oscar: To me! 

Maria: To me! 

All: To me! 

(Oscar throws his cake on the ground and it lands with a 'squish')
