Am I Very Wrong? Lyrics by Genesis

50 Years Ago

1969

[Verse 1]
Am I very wrong
To hide behind the glare
Of an open minded stare?
Am I very wrong
To wander in the fear
Of a never ending lie

[Verse 2]
Am I very wrong
To try to close my ears
To the sound they play so loud?
Am I very wrong
The happiness machine
Is trying hard to sing my song

[Chorus]
Today's your birthday friend
Everything all right
Let us our greetings to you send
Happy friend
Everything all right
We hope your life will never end

[Verse 3]
Am I very wrong
To want to steal a pin
Then I'll check that I have skin?
Am I very wrong
To want to leave my friends
And the curse of the happiness machine?

[Chorus]
Today's your birthday friend
Everything all right
Let us our greetings to you send
Happy friend
Everything all right
We hope your life will never end

[Outro]
We hope your life will never end (They say)
We hope your life will never end (They say, never end)
We hope your life will never end (Never end, never end, never end, never end)
We hope your life will never end (They say, never end, oh)
We hope your life will never end (They say, never end)
We hope your life will never end (Never end, never end, never end, never end, never…)
