No time for the movie show, TV, or the radio

Gotta write a symphony, end it with some poetry

Tie them with a ribbon made of gold and give them to Cindy

Today is Cindy's birthday

No time for geometry, 'rithmetic, or history

Gotta write a song from my heart, then pick the greatest work of art

Tie them with a ribbon made of gold and give them to Cindy

Today is Cindy's birthday

No time to do the Twist, don't mind all the things I miss

Gotta write a melody, write it from the heart of me

Tie it with a ribbon made of gold and give it to Cindy

Today is Cindy's birthday

Yes, Cindy's happy birthday
