Happy Birthday, Sir David

Intro

(Oh-oh) A hundred years, yeah, what a ride

Sir David, here's to you, side by side

Verse

From the wild savannas to the deep blue sea

You've shown us wonders, set our spirits free

Lions roaring, birds in flight so high

Elephants marching under endless sky

Your voice like thunder, calm and true

Guiding us through, what the world can do

Chorus

Happy birthday, Sir David, one hundred strong

Keep on teaching, where we all belong

In this big old world, full of life and song

Happy birthday, yeah, carry on, carry on

(Happy birthday) One hundred years of gold

(Happy birthday) Stories yet untold

Verse

Penguins waddling on the icy shore

Coral reefs blooming, more and more

You've whispered secrets of the ancient trees

Fought for the future on your bended knees

Through decades dancing with the wind and rain

Your wisdom's fire, lighting up the plain

Chorus

Happy birthday, Sir David, one hundred strong

Keep on teaching, where we all belong

In this big old world, full of life and song

Happy birthday, yeah, carry on, carry on

(Happy birthday) One hundred years of gold

(Happy birthday) Stories yet untold

Bridge

(Yeah, yeah) From boy to legend, never slowed down

Planet's guardian, wearing nature's crown

Here's to tomorrows, bright and green

With you leading, we've seen what can be

Chorus

Happy birthday, Sir David, one hundred strong

Keep on teaching, where we all belong

In this big old world, full of life and song

Happy birthday, yeah, carry on, carry on

(Happy birthday) One hundred years of gold

(Happy birthday) Stories yet untold

(Oh-oh) Carry on, carry on

Outro

Happy birthday... (yeah, yeah)

Sir David... one hundred... strong
