You know it doesn't
make much sense

There ought to be
a law against
Anyone who takes offense
At a day in your celebration

'Cause 
we all know in
our minds
That there ought to

be a time
That we can set aside
To show, just how muchwe 
love you

And 
I'm sure you will agree
It couldn't fit more perfectly
Than to have a world party

on the day you came to be
Happy 
birthday to ya 
Happy birthday to ya 

Happy birthday
Happy birthday to ya 
Happy birthday to ya 
Happy birthday

I 
just never understood
How a man who died for 
good

Could not have a day
that would
Be set, aside for his recognition
Because 

it should never be
Just because some cannot see
The dream as clear as he
That they, should make itbecome 

an illusion
And 
we all know everything
That he stood for time

will bring
For in peace our heartswill 
sing
Thanks to Martin Luther King

Happy 
birthday to ya 
Happy birthday to ya 
Happy birthday

Happy birthday to ya 
Happy birthday to ya 
Happy birthday
Why 

has there never
been a holiday, yeah
Where peace is celebrated
all throughout the world.....

The 
time is overdue
For people like me and you
You know the way to truth

Is love and unity
to all God's children
It 
should be a great event

And the whole day
should be spent
In full remembrance
Of those who lived

and died for the
oneness of all people
So 
let us all begin

We know that love can win
Let it out don't hold it in
Sing it loud as you can
Happy 

birthday to ya 
Happy birthday to ya 
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to ya 

Happy birthday to ya 
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to ya 
Happy birthday to ya 

Happy birthday
Happy birthday to ya 
Happy birthday to ya 
Happy birthday....
