  Verse 1

  You slide the corner table out and wave the whole room in the taps are dripping overhead but you're the reason we begin

  Pre-chorus

  Somebody grab the fiddle now somebody stamp the floor we're loud because we love you

  Chorus

  Julian, pour another round Julian, don't sit down you make this dusty corner shine like it's the best bar in town

  Verse 2

  The candles catch the amber light and drip down just like beer you laugh and every table leans to catch you loud and clear

  Bridge

  Here's to the nights you kept us close here's to the friend you've been raise up your glass and toast yourself Julian, let it spill again

  Chorus

  Julian, pour another round Julian, don't sit down you make this dusty corner shine like it's the best bar in town

  Outro

  The taps will drip long after this but you're the warmth we'll remember

  Country hoedown · Country · Fiddle · Lively

  A stomping country hoedown birthday song for Julian, built on the racket of a dryer full of loose zippers to say how loud, bright and loved they are.

  Verse 1

  Something's rattling down the hall Metal jackets, having a ball Clattering like a runaway train That racket sounds like your name again

  Pre-chorus

  Every room gets louder when you're in it You spin the noise up every minute So grab the candles, here's the count

  Chorus

  Julian, you're worth a million Loud and bright and never still, and Julian, you shine like brass Nobody parties like you do, class

  Verse 2

  Zippers clanging round and round Nothing that wild made a better sound You've got that same old clattering charm Waking the whole house, arm in arm

  Pre-chorus

  Every room gets louder when you're in it You spin the noise up every minute So grab the candles, here's the count

  Chorus

  Julian, you're worth a million Loud and bright and never still, and Julian, you shine like brass Nobody parties like you do, class

  Bridge

  Here's to another trip around Here's to the joy, here's to the sound We wouldn't trade this noise for quiet Not for anything, we won't deny it

  Chorus

  Julian, you're worth a million Loud and bright and never still, and Julian, you shine like brass Nobody parties like you do, class

  Outro

  Let the drum spin, let it clatter You're the sound that's always mattered

  Verse 1

  Boxes spilling at the market Bruised gold piled up high Nobody looks twice at lemons But we always look for you

  Pre-chorus

  You turn plain crates into treasure Just by standing near So let the trumpets find the reason

  Chorus

  Julian, the room lifts when you're in it You shine like something spilled and brilliant Twice as loud as any million Julian, we're glad you're here tonight

  Verse 2

  Some things get better when they're battered Lemons prove that's true Every mark you've picked up living Only makes us love you more

  Bridge

  Blow the horns and let it carry Out past the awning, down the street Everybody raise a glass now This whole crowd came here for you

  Chorus

  Julian, the room lifts when you're in it You shine like something spilled and brilliant Twice as loud as any million Julian, we're glad you're here tonight

  Outro

  Take the bruised ones, take the bright ones Julian, we'd pick you every time
