And the beat goes on
I'm a happy girl
It's my birthday song
In my happy world

I know it's gonna be a good day
Oh yeah, today is my birthday
Huh

Chorus:

And the beat goes on [And the beat goes on]
I'm a happy girl [I'm a happy girl]
It's my birthday song [Oh yeah, it's my birthday]
In my happy world [In my happy world]

Light my candles, gotta make a wish
Wrap up the present and seal it with a kiss
Give me a spanking, start the day off right [hoo wee]
'Cause it's my day, you're gonna sing my song tonight

(chorus)

I know it's gonna be a good day
Oh yeah, today is my birthday
I'm a happy girl [I'm a happy girl]
Huh

My type of party, there's no hangover
So grab your things you better come over
We get high and we still stay sober
We throw it down then we gonna start over
My type of party, there's no hangover

(chorus)

I want a diamond, don't give me fake [That's what I said]
I'll let you lick the frosting off my cake [Yeah]
Give me spanking, start the day off right [Whew]
'Cause it's my birthday, you'll be singing my song tonight

(chorus)

I know it's gonna be a good day
Oh yeah, today is my birthday
I'm a happy girl
In my happy world
Huh

I know it's gonna be a good day
Oh yeah, today is my birthday
I'm a happy girl
(Spoken:) It's my birthday every day

Na na na na, na na na na na na
Na na na na
Gonna sing my song tonight
(repeat 3 times)

(Spoken:) Happy Birthday!

    My Interpretation

    Agreed! In Birthday Song, despite the hidden sadness that has marked her life, Madonna is a liberated woman-a happy girl in her happy world-to paraphrase her Ciccone lyric quote. For Madonna, music, love and life are gifts to be cherished-she keeps going because the lady lives her American life the right way. How a Detroit Rebel from the car state of Michigan turned out to be the best Pop/Rock Singer of her generation. And pundits said she wouldn't last past 15 minutes. Yet here Madonna is-right on top of the music world for good to stay. Hail Madonna, Full of grace! Every day is her birthday! Madonna Forever!
