Too Bad On Your Birthday by Ram Jam

I heard your best friend say, you shouldn't have treated her that way
You could've been a little bit kinder
He didn't send you no note, didn't give you no gift
He didn't even try to find ya

Well, that's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday

You were my love once, it lasted several months
And I was in love even blinder
When you left me I cried, all my tears haven't dried
So I'm leavin' this little reminder

Oh, it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
Oh, too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday

And now you're the girl with cake on her face
Yeah, you're the one who's cryin'
Blow out the candles and make a wish
If you need a drink, babe I'm buyin', yeah

Too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday

Woe, too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said that's too bad, that's too bad
Too bad on your birthday

Too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
I said it's too bad, too bad
Too bad on your birthday
That's too bad

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY FRIEND

I didn't even realize ram jam had any other songs aside black betty. This song sucked. Sounds like they made it up one afternoon after drinking beer.

I'm also surprised chris remembered Aarons birthday. Where would he be without electronic reminders and/or his wife?

Wasn't there a more positive song you could've picked to celebrate aaron? Are you trying to send aaron a message of despair? Song like cats and cradle by Harry chapin, baker street by Jerry raferty, or even the end by the doors would've been as positive. Actually they wouldve been better. At least those songs have lyrical and musical merit.

Thanks for the uplifting song, chris. Sorry aaron... you deserve better.

this coming from a "friend" who actually forgot my birthday. Sad
