Forty‑Year Firecracker

Lyrics

CRAIG — FORTY YEARS OF MADNESS Verse 1 Well, Craig has hit the big four-oh, And there’s one thing we all know, He’s flown around the whole wide world, But there’s nowhere else he’d rather go. Than home with Sammy by his side, With Elias and Joshua too, His favourite place, his greatest pride, Is right there with his crew. Pre-Chorus He’s a top bloke, through and through, Though sometimes he’s a barmpot too! You never quite know what he’ll do, But that’s what makes him… Craig! Chorus 🎵 Ohhh Craig, he’s forty today! Still causing chaos in his own special way! From Liverpool nights to the far-away skies, With Sammy and the boys, he’s got all he needs in life. Elias! Joshua! Hear everybody say, “Here’s to Craig — it’s your birthday!” He’s loved by his family, loved by his mates, Forty years old — and he’s still in great shape! 🎵 Verse 2 He lives and breathes the Liverpool red, Football running through his head, Singing songs and shouting loud, Probably driving Sammy mad! From Anfield dreams to worldwide trips, He’s seen some places, had some kicks, But give him a sofa, his family near, And that’s his perfect atmosphere. Pre-Chorus He might be crackers, slightly daft, He might have had a few too many laughs, But one thing everybody knows is true, There’s no-one quite like our Craig! Chorus 🎵 Ohhh Craig, he’s forty today! Still causing chaos in his own special way! From Liverpool nights to the far-away skies, With Sammy and the boys, he’s got all he needs in life. Elias! Joshua! Hear everybody say, “Here’s to Craig — it’s your birthday!” He’s loved by his family, loved by his mates, Forty years old — and he’s still in great shape! 🎵 Bridge He’s crossed the oceans, travelled miles, But nothing beats those boys’ smiles. Sammy knows the man beneath the madness, The laughs, the love, the joy and gladness. And wherever life takes him, near or far, His family will always be his guiding star. Big Final Chorus 🎵 SO COME ON CRAIG — RAISE YOUR GLASS! Forty years — and what a blast! Liverpool red and a heart of gold, Still a big kid, though he’s getting old! SAMMY! ELIAS! JOSHUA TOO! This one’s from the whole crew! Family, friends, all gathered here, To celebrate our favourite barmpot of the year! OH CRAIG — YOU’RE FORTY TODAY! So sing it loud and shout hooray! You’re loved more than you’ll ever know, Happy 40th, Craig — NOW LET’S GO! 🎵 YOU’LL NEVER WALK ALONE… 🎵
