Verse 2 (add bassline)

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday
And I feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen
Sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me
No one knew me
Hello Teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me
Look right through me
