Christina s Birthday

Each year, our Christina has a birthday affair,
Each year, she invites her friends to bash with a flair,
Each year, it should be said,
Invites are always sent,
Table is good and set, the dishes are there…
Our Christina cleaned the floors till they’re shiny,
In the parlor, all is ready for dining,
Chairs – set classily,
Candles are gracing the
Perfect birthday cake…

Miss Christina – ballerina, signorina,
House full of guests…
Keep on dreaming: books and roses, tangerines and
Presents for the best,
Hey, Christina, I hope you live very long,
Hey, Christina, I hope your life is a song,
Hey, Christina!!!

Each year, whirls the house in the holiday craze,
Each year, until midnight lights the house ablaze,
So anxious our birthday girl,
Awaiting this birthday whirl,
The clock, pray, no delays!
Clock, chime! For a while I’ve been ready and dashing,
I’m…waiting for my birthday bash and:
Chairs – set classily,
Candles are gracing the
Perfect birthday cake…

Refrain

Each year, it’s all over with the sun’s morning rays,
Each year, all the guests go their separate ways,
The party’s about to die,
Christina – all set to cry,
Cake is gone and final candle fades…
The house, where she partied – signorina Christina,
Is now in slumber, no toasts or “vino,”
The sky’s getting overcast,
There’s nothing to do, alas,
But wait a whole year…
(There’s nothing to do but last
A whole wretched year)
