The C.R.S. Players Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the cops are at the door
Bottle rockets in the yard, asking what are they for
The kids are starting shit and it's hard to ignore
Well the punks are on the roof now
Oh yeah!
And somebody's spilled the wine
The record's about to skip but it's staying it time
The girls they've got to piss so they're waiting in line
Happy Birthday to me and you
Happy Birthday to me and you
Happy Birthday to me and you
Happy Birthday to me and you

The record is about to skip, but miraculously it stays in time, and the girls are waiting in line for the bathroom.
Amid the chaos, the repeated phrase "Happy Birthday to me and you" adds an element of irony to the situation. The singer's reflection on the disorderly events that have taken place serves to highlight the darker side of birthday celebrations and the toll that they can take on both the partygoers and the surrounding community.
