Story Behind The Song

Speaking to a woman about to turn 30,and telling her to stay positive and love herself.

Song Description

A birthday song about the realities of turning 30, and staying young. The verses speak to a woman about to turn 30 of the negative thoughts she and other people may be thinking about turning 30 and what to do about them. The Chorus brings home the positive aspect. There is no bridge because it doesn't need one. Could use a musical interlude to extend it if necessary.

Lyrics

29 AGAIN (IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY GIRL)

[intro]
[V1]
YOU'RE TURNIN' 29 AGAIN,
YOU HATE SURPRISES, BUT YOU LOVE YOUR FRIENDS
THE CARDS AND PRESENTS THAT YOU'RE OPENIN', MAKE YOU LAUGH AND CRY
[V2]
LITTLE JOKES SLIP INTO CONVERSATION,
'BOUT GETTING' MARRIED AND BABY MAKIN'
YOU LAUGH ALONG BUT THEIR WORDS AWAKEN FEARS INSIDE
[PC1]
YOUR FRIENDS ARE HITCHIN' UP, BUT YOU'RE NOT READY, YOU'RE HAPPY, HOLDIN' HANDS AND GOIN' STEADY
YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY WOMAN, PUSHIN' THIRTY, BACK ANOTHER YEAR

[C1]
IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY GIRL AND YOU'RE GETTIN' OLDER, BUT YOUR LIPS STILL SCORCH AND YOUR EYES STILL SMOLDER
STILL KNOCK 'EM OVER LIKE A ROLLIN' BOLDER, YEAH YA DO

TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND BLOW OUT YOUR CANDLES, AINT NOTHIN' COMIN' UP THAT YOU CAN'T HANDLE
MAKE A WISH THAT FATHER TIME WILL STAND STILL AND LOOK THE OTHER WAY, WHILE YOU TURN 29 AGAIN TODAY

[interlude]

[V3]
THIRTY ISN'T QUIET, POUNDS IN YOUR HEAD LIKE A BAR ROOM RIOT
YOU CAN'T DECIDE IF YOU'LL CONFIRM OR DENY IT, YOU NEED SOME TIME ALONE
[V4]
SO P0UR SOME PERFUME IN A NICE HOT BATH, EAT CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES, BLOW BUBBLES RELAX
TAKE ANOTHER YEAR TO SIFT THROUGH THE FACTS, TAKE IT SLOW

[PC2]
YOUR MAMA FELLS YOUR PAIN CUZ IT ONCE STUNG HER, SEEMS STRANGE THAT EVERY YEAR SHE'S GETTING' YOUNGER
GO 'BOUT YOUR BUSINESS WHEN THEY CALL YOUR NUMBER, AS IF YOU DIDN'T HEAR

[C2]
IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY GIRL AND YOU'RE GETTIN' OLDER, BUT YOUR LIPS STILL SCORCH AND YOUR EYES STILL SMOLDER
STILL KNOCK 'EM OVER LIKE A ROLLIN' BOLDER, YEAH YA DO
TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND BLOW OUT YOUR CANDLES, AINT NOTHIN' COMIN' UP THAT YOU CAN'T HANDLE
MAKE A WISH THAT FATHER TIME WILL STAND STILL AND LOOK THE OTHER WAY,

WHILE YOU TURN 29 AGAIN , NOW DROP A YEAR EVERY NINE OR TEN
YOU'LL KEEP 'EM GUESSIN' TILL THE VERY END, WHEN YOU TURN 99 AGAIN,

GO TURN 29 AGAIN TODAY
HEY, HEY. HEY HEY ..
YEAH, YEAH, YEAH,, YEAH YEAH.
