lyrics

Today's my birthday
I'm turning 30
I'm perfectly healthy
Independently wealthy
In my head

And that's Bill Murray
I'm his best friend
He's at my party
Pouring shots again
We're having a good time
In my head

Sinatra's crooning, the girls are swooning
Everyone is here, even the Goonies
In my head

In my head the sun is shining bright tonight
In my head those I've lost are still alive
In my head the world is so unusually happy

In my head everyone loves everyone
In my head no one needs to use a gun
In my head the world is so unusually happy

Took a rocket to outer space
Found the cure for cancer
For the human race
And brought it back
In my head

In my head, there is nothing but good will
In my head, no one uses God to kill
In my head the world is so unusually happy

In my head, everywhere it's beautiful
In my head, life is one big musical
In my head the world is so unusually happy

Today's my birthday...

Such a huge fan of Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers from the very beginning. Their music is the ultimate good mood music. Now finding out about Jim's music after seeing them in concert, I cannot get enough of all of it! Fabulous! Mike Bason

I have been a fan of this band and it's previous incarnation (The Refreshments) for as long as I can remember. I have seen many shows here in Vegas, plus in Arizona and California. This particular show was definitely one for the ages. I am so happy to be able to revisit through this recording. Thanks Roger, PH, Nick, and Jim (and Boots too!) Stephen Sylvanie
