Robin Trower - Birthday Boy lyrics

Trower-Dewar Down at the bottom of the stairs sits the birthday boy Reading letters in between the lines Ready for a little trip to the seaside Hoping he can make it there on time Sitting in the station watching choo choo trains With wheels to take him clicking down the line The sky is getting darker, but if it rains It's nicer when the sun comes out to shine He's had a busy day, tomorrow's on it's way Time to leave the sea, and hurry home for Tea is waiting on the table for the birthday boy Grandfather's clock is ticking in the hall Sitting by the fire, now the birthday boy Is feeling very sleepy, very small He's had a busy day, tomorrow's on it's way Time to leave the sea, time to leave the sea He's had a busy day, tomorrow's on it's way Time to leave the sea, time to leave the sea Time to leave the sea, time to leave the sea Time to leave the sea, time to leave the sea Time to leave the sea, time to leave the sea
