It was my best friend's birthday
So I went to the store

I got a balloon
And a serving spoon
And some fruit cubes
And frosting tubes

I bought a cake with her name on it
I bought a cake tray with a crack in it
'Cause I dropped it on the floor...
When I was walking out the door

I tripped on a plastic plate
Dropped by some girl named Kate
She left it rolling around the place
And made me fall right on my face

My right hand fell into the cake
The fall made all the cookies break
My shoe went and popped the balloon
My elbow made a dent in the spoon

All the fruit cubes on the floor
The frosting tubes were full no more
There was frosting on her card...
Heck, nothing but frosting for at least a yard!

I think the manager got a little stressed
Before too long, he was only half dressed
Mopping frosting off the floor
Rushing, running through the store

Cantaloupe and melon soup
Rainbow chocolate frosting goop
Big ole hand print in the cake
My fancy party was at stake

I went to go and buy some more
But the manager kicked me out the store
I took my spoon and crushed balloon
My cookies and my mangled cake

I grabbed the fruit cubes off the floor
And ran them to my friend's front door
When she came and answered me
I held them out for her to see

And though I thought she'd cry and pout
She laughed till all her tears ran out
We ate the cake and fruit together
She said it was the "Best Birthday Ever!"
