[Intro - smoky electric guitar, Hammond organ, finger snaps, sultry vocal] It’s your birthday, baby And I brought you something fine No box, no bow Just a little gift of mine [Verse 1 - intimate, conversational] I got dressed up, put on your favorite perfume Been waiting all day just to give this to you You’ve been getting birthday wishes, one after another But I saved the best one From your favorite lover You don’t need a shirt You don’t need a tie You don’t need a fancy gift I’ve got something better in mind I’ve been thinking all day About what I could do And I finally figured out The perfect gift for you [Pre-Chorus - building with soulful harmonies] So blow out these candles Make a birthday wish I’ve got something waiting That you won’t wanna miss [Chorus - sultry, soulful, fuller instrumentation] Birthday sex That’s your present from me No wrapping paper No receipt Just lock the door And turn down the lights I’m gonna make your birthday One hell of a night Birthday sex You already know I’ve got a little surprise That I’m ready to show They can keep the cake They can keep the champagne ’Cause your birthday present Is calling your name [Verse 2 - bluesier, teasing delivery] I put on something pretty Just for my birthday boy And judging by your smile I think you found your joy You can open any present That you want to But there’s only one gift That came from me to you No shopping, no standing in line No credit card, no shipping time I’m right here, wrapped up in a smile And I’ve been waiting on you for awhile [Pre-Chorus - soft harmony, rising tension] So blow out these candles Make your birthday wish You might not wanna wait ’Cause you’re gonna like this [Chorus - soulful, bigger] Birthday sex That’s your present from me No wrapping paper No receipt Just lock the door And turn down the lights I’m gonna make your birthday One hell of a night Birthday sex You already know I’ve got a little surprise That I’m ready to show They can keep the cake They can keep the champagne ’Cause your birthday present Is calling your name [Bridge - stripped down, bluesy guitar and organ, spoken-sung] Happy birthday, baby I hope you like your present There’s no return policy… And no exchanges [Final Chorus - passionate, full country-soul arrangement] Birthday sex That’s your present from me The kind of birthday gift That don’t come with no receipt Forget the birthday cake Forget the balloons I’ve got a better way To celebrate with you Birthday sex You’re gonna love this And when you blow out these candles You’re gonna get your wish [Outro Chorus - slow, teasing] Happy birthday, baby Your present’s here tonight So come unwrap your woman And turn off all the lights [Outro - whispered over fading guitar and organ] Happy birthday… You’re welcome.
