I had a bass for my birthday this year
And I have learnt to play
And I'll smash any pranny
That comes 'round here
And tries to have my bass away
That very same day
That I learnt how to play
Outside our house just hanging about
Was a mush in blue jeans
That were frayed at the seams
Who said he was a talent scout
I had a bass for my birthday
A bass for my birthday
A bass for my birthday
I learnt to play today
I thought I had a pretty good name
I was called Van Erickson
But he said he knew best
And had tattooed on my chest
My new name, Mickey Moron
Now you'll have to go far
Before you beat me I tell ya
'Cause now I'm a flipping great star
I've been on TV so it's easy to see
How I got this big house and this car
I had a bass for my birthday
[A bass for my birthday]
A bass for my birthday
[A bass for my birthday]
I learned to play today
Magic
I had a bass for my birthday
[A bass for my birthday]
A bass for my birthday
[A bass for my birthday]
I learned to play today
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday Mickey Moron
Happy birthday to you
[talking]
Hello Mickey
Awe magic
Awe that's a lovely bit of art
Listen to that
Ah this is, this is too much
I reckon I'm gonna be a star for about
Thirty years at this rate
I'm gonna have a number one
That's gonna last a bleedin' year
It's beautiful
Hey, hey you get off my Rolls
Hey that's my Rolls Royce
[Woman's voice interrupting]
Mickey, Mickey Love, wake up
You're gonna be late
Awe no Mama
I was having such a beautiful dream
D'yo know, I dreamt
That I had a bass for my birthday
