Текст песни
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 much we love you
And I'm sure you would agree,
what could fit more perfectly
Than to have a world party on the day you came to be
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you
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 it become an illusion
And we all know everything that
he stood for time will bring
For in peace our hearts will sing:
Thanks to Martin Luther King
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Why has there never been a holiday, yeah
Where peace is celebrated all throughout the world
The time is overdue, ha, for people like me and you
Who 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 you, happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
(Happy birthday)
(Happy birthday, happy birthday)
(Happy birthday)
(Happy birthday, happy birthday)
(Happy birthday)
we know the key to unity of all people
Is in the dream that we had so long ago
(happy birthday)
That lives in all of the hearts of people
(happy birthday)
Who believe in unity (happy birthday)
We'll make the dream become a reality
(happy birthday)
I know we will (happy birthday)
because our hearts tell us so
(Happy birthday)
(Happy birthday, happy birthday)
(Happy birthday)
(Happy birthday, happy birthday)
(Happy birthday)
(Happy birthday, happy birthday)
