Lyrics:

I bought a cupcake for my birthday
vanilla frosting; they're out of chocolate
I found a candle; half a candle
the wick is burnt; hope I can get it lit
I found it way in the back of the junk drawer
must've saved it from a time before
a time before when I had friends

seems no one has remembered
it's that time of year
and my birthday's lost in December
between the holiday cheer
Oh, sad ol' me
oh, sad ol' me
and I'm still getting older
oh, sad ol' me
