Sorry to burst your bubble, but my grandfather has been singing that song since before I was born. I’m actually trying to find who came up with it.

[...] I would break into song, but I am still looking for a better song. [...]

There is a great scene in the Corporation where they mute the sound
during the singing of Happy Birthday and explain they used the $10,000 it would have cost them to include it to send a crew to LA to shoot an interview.

Sometime I will sing you the birthday song we had to sing when I worked at the Olive Garden. From the pasta we make to the lasagna we bake, wishing you a happy birthday…

My grandfather wrote a birthday song that I think would be perfect:

Greetings on your natal day
May health and happiness come your way
and may life bless you when we say
happy birthday dear squidward
happy birthday to you!

Next time you run into me, I’ll sing it for you. Should be creative commons’d.

i abhor the happy birthday song. nothing makes me less happy than when people sing it. a friend of mine in college made up a birthday dirge as a response. it went:

happy birthday, happy birthday
misery and despair, people dying everywhere
happy birthday, happy birthday

I always ask my friends who wish to sing to me on my birthday to pick a few choice verses of the Viking Birthday Dirge. It draws the most interesting looks in restaurants...
