Lyrics: Urge Overkill. The Supersonic Storybook. Today Is Blackie's Birthday.

Oh that baby, you look so tired
A full-grown baby
You're growin' so tired of growin' old
And how old are ya'?

And were you ever
(Really [unverified] baby [unverified])
There'll be a new Sun risin'
For another day's passin'
Over your gray horizon

Today is the first day of the rest a' your life
Time goes away
You've thought about checkin' out and don't deny it
Time goes away

But if you really wanna can the music
You better sleep on it
Fill your life with the love or lose it

Like a' rock 'n' roll music
No more agin' now
Today you're gonna help celebrate Blackie's birthday
He's 22 today
It's Blackie's birthday, he's 22 today

So you're gonna get up
You're gonna wrap him up a big surprise
Today is Blackie's birthday
And we'll sing 'happy birthday to you'

Today is the first day of the rest a' your life
Time goes away
You've thought about checkin' out
And don't deny it, already tried it

Time won't go away, no, it won't
But if you really wanna can the music
You better sleep on it
Fill your life with the love or lose it

Like a' rock 'n' roll music
No more agin' now for us
Today Urge Overkill celebrates Blackie's birthday
He's 22 today
It's Blackie's birthday, he's 22 today

So you're gonna get up
We're gonna wrap him up a big surprise
Today is Blackie's birthday
So Blackie, happy birthday, yeah, oh ho
