Mame: It's Today

Light the candles
 Get the ice out
 Roll the rug up
 It's today
 Though it may not be anyone's birthday
 And though it's far from the first of the year
 I know that this very minute has history in it
 We're here!
 It's a time for
 Making merry
 And so I'm for
 Making hay
 Tune the grand up
 Dance your shoes off
 Strike the band up
 It's today!
 And we're living
 And we're well, gang
 So raise hell, gang
 While we may
 Call the cops out
 Raise the rockets
 Pull the stops out
 (Pull out the stops)
 It's today
 Light the candles
 Fill the punch bowl
 Throw confetti
 It's today
 Life can also be lived on a weekday
 So don't depend on a holiday date
 If you need New Year's to bubble
 Then order a double and wait
 Doo doo doo doo dah
 There's a "thank you"
 You can give life
 If you live life
 All the way
 Pull the stops out
 Hold the roof down
 Fellows, watch out!
 It's today
 It's a time for
 Making merry
 And so I'm for
 Making hay
 Tune the grand up
 Call the cops out
 Strike the band up
 Pull the stops out
 Hallelujah!
 It's today!
 Light the sparklers
 Crash the cymbals
 Blow the bugle
 It's today
 Someone gave me a wonderful present
 Something I needed, and yet, never knew
 So start the whistling and clapping
 'Cause under the wrapping was you
 And we'll give life
 Quite a tumble
 And we'll live life
 All the way!
 Call the cops out
 Raise a racket
 Pull the stops out
 It's today!
