Happy Birthday, Flea

Will you stay in our lovers' story?

If you stay, you won't be sorry

'Cause we believe in you

Soon you'll grow

So take a chance

With a couple of kooks

Hung up on romancing

We bought a lot of clothes to keep you warm and dry

And a funny old crib on which the paint won't dry

I bought you a pair of shoes

A trumpet you can blow

And a book of rules

Of what to say to people when they pick on you

'Cause if you stay with us you're gonna be pretty kooky too

Will you stay in our lovers' story?
If you stay, you won't be sorry
'Cause we believe in you
Soon you'll grow
So take a chance
With a couple of kooks
Hung up on romancing

And if you ever have to go to school

Remember how they messed up this old fool

Don't pick fights with the bullies or the cads

'Cause I'm not much cop at punching other people's dads

And if the homework brings you down

Then we'll throw it on the fire and take the car downtown

Will you stay in our lovers' story?
If you stay, you won't be sorry
'Cause we believe in you
Soon you'll grow
So take a chance
With a couple of kooks
Hung up on romancing
