about

Greg Brown-y I suppose?

lyrics

Well it seems you made it, this stage of the race is run
You finished a particularly strange trip round the sun
You kept some decent company with Dotts and Jonathan
And some kitties who now floof around in sweet kitty heaven

Happy birthday Bethan
You’re one year nearer death and
May the Celtic God Amaethon
Help your garden persevere
Happy birthday Bethan, all
lift a glass with no ethanol
And take a long deep breath in
All will toast the coming year

You read a bunch of sci fi and you taught geography
You Exercised your green fingers horticulturally
You drank up some Ribena, at least that’s what I’m told
And somehow Johnny living with you hasn’t yet got old
