about

This music for this song is from "The New Happy Birthday Song." The lyrics were changed and the song was entirely re-recorded to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Crayola crayon Company.

lyrics

Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyy....Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyy......A celebration anew,
Happy Birthday to you.....

1903 was when Binney & Smith,
Improved the Crayon mess,
With reduction in size, colored pigment and wax,
They met with instant success!!

This new crayon Alice Binney did love,
Teaching was her game,
She put together two words, meaning oily and chalk,
She gave Crayola it’s name.

Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyy....Will bring presents to you,
Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyy......And best wishes too,
Happy Birthday to you.....

Those first colors that appeared on the scene,
Were brown, yellow and black,
Orange purple and red, blue and green,
They came eight in a pack.

As years flew by, creativity boomed,
Crayola grew,
From Clayola clay, water colors for all,
To Silly Putty too!

Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyy....Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyy......A celebration anew,
Happy Birthday to you.....

. I’m afraid to close my eyes, for things can change....
“Raw Umber” and “Maize,” these colors now gone,
Retirement seems so strange !!!!,

Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyy....Will bring presents to you,
Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyy......And best wishes too,
Happy Birthday to you.....

One hundred years, it’s been since that day,
Crayola hit the map,
Many colors have come, if there are more to be found,
Crayola will fill that gap!!

Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyy....Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyy......A celebration anew,
Happy Birthday to you.....Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you…Happy Birthday to you.
