  Verse 1

  Chairs stacked up by the wall Balloons caught on the net Somebody's calling your name down the hall Best one this room has met

  Pre-chorus

  Lights are low, the cake's still lit Everyone's holding their breath a bit Waiting on you to say when

  Chorus

  Larry, light the candles up Let this whole hall carry your name Another year we'd never swap Larry, blow and start again

  Verse 2

  Someone's found the old backboard Bouncing echoes off the beams We came for cake but we stayed for more Stayed to watch you burst at the seams

  Bridge

  However far this year has run However loud the day gets We're glad we get to call you one Of the best this room forgets not

  Chorus

  Larry, light the candles up Let this whole hall carry your name Another year we'd never swap Larry, blow and start again

  Outro

  Fold the chairs against the wall We'll do this all again next fall

  Verse 1

  Green bottles rolling on the tar Warm from the sun, they don't go far You laugh and the whole street sings There's joy in the smallest things

  Pre-chorus

  The chimney smoke curls up so slow Something good is about to grow We feel it building, here it comes

  Chorus

  Larry, Larry, light of the yard Nothing about you comes hard We gather round to sing your name Larry, you set this whole day aflame

  Verse 2

  Every bottle's a joy you gave Rolling easy, never brave You never asked to be the star But here we are, here we are

  Chorus

  Larry, Larry, light of the yard Nothing about you comes hard We gather round to sing your name Larry, you set this whole day aflame

  Bridge

  Bricks stand steady, so do you Warm as tar in the afternoon Held by hands that won't let go We love you more than we could show

  Chorus

  Larry, Larry, light of the yard Nothing about you comes hard We gather round to sing your name Larry, you set this whole day aflame

  Outro

  Let the bottles roll on home You are never on your own

  Verse 1

  Drops race down the tinted glass Behind that yellow rail You laugh at how the weather turns But you still made the tale

  Pre-chorus

  Every year you find your way here Through whatever gets thrown down Something in you keeps on glowing

  Chorus

  Larry, tonight we raise it up We're pouring out for you However far this journey led Larry, we made it through

  Verse 2

  Fog builds soft against the pane You trace a crooked line The whole bus rattles on the road But you don't miss a sign

  Pre-chorus

  Every year you find your way here Through whatever gets thrown down Something in you keeps on glowing

  Chorus

  Larry, tonight we raise it up We're pouring out for you However far this journey led Larry, we made it through

  Bridge

  We don't need the sun to shine Not with you around You turn a ride through grey and rain Into the best sound

  Chorus

  Larry, tonight we raise it up We're pouring out for you However far this journey led Larry, we made it through

  Outro

  The glass still runs with silver light And you're still here to see it
