Many Happy Returns lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Many Happy Returns lyrics When I accepted this job I was resigned to my fate When I got there early She?d arrive late You can say she?s gone forever Or just sit tight and wait She said I was unprincipled That I was not the first Like the phoenix coming back From the ashes, uh huh I know what?s good But I know what trash is In the head lights In the highlights of her hair Hit the head lines But she?s not there Many happy returns, many happy returns These are the lessons I could have learned Return, many happy returns And these are the letters I should have burned Okay, I?m sad, not blue Okay, remember All that matters to me now Is the message I sent her Like the world, spinning ?round On it?s axis, uh huh I know democracy But I know what?s fascist When she?s gone, all I ve got to learn Is the law of diminishing return When she?s here one thing I?ve found Things get better second time around Return, many happy returns These are the lessons that I could have learned Return, many happy returns And these are the letters I should have burned Okay I?m sad, not blue Okay, remember All that matters to me now Is the message I sent her Now she?s gone, she?s gone away Now she?s gone forget her Coming back another day If you?d only let her And now she?s gone, she?s gone away But now she?s gone forget her I m coming back no other day So why resurrect her? Many happy returns, many happy returns These are the lessons I should have learned Many happy returns, many happy returns And these are the letters I should have burned song lyrics
