  Verse 1

  Boxes sliding on the back seat Every turn we take a beat You just laugh and hold them steady Always calm and always ready

  Pre-chorus

  You make the bumpy roads feel fine You turn the ordinary to shine So raise your voice and start the line

  Chorus

  Peter, nobody's sweeter Every year you just get sweeter We're so glad that you were born Louder now, let's blow the horn

  Verse 2

  Packed the car and drove for miles Somehow you still gave us smiles Rattling boxes, engine humming You're the reason good days are coming

  Pre-chorus

  You make the bumpy roads feel fine You turn the ordinary to shine So raise your voice and start the line

  Chorus

  Peter, nobody's sweeter Every year you just get sweeter We're so glad that you were born Louder now, let's blow the horn

  Bridge

  Here's to you, our steady greeter No one kinder, no one fleeter Whatever road that we are on We're glad you're riding right along

  Chorus

  Peter, nobody's sweeter Every year you just get sweeter We're so glad that you were born Louder now, let's blow the horn

  Outro

  Boxes settle, engine's still We're just glad you're here, we will

  Verse 1

  Mud is drying on the goalpost Tub of orange slices on the grass Everybody here because you asked us We came running when you called at last

  Pre-chorus

  You always share the sweetest pieces You keep the whole team in one place Now the candles wait for wishes

  Chorus

  Peter, Peter, light the fire up Nobody moves us like you do Peter, we are here to fill your cup Happy birthday, we all chose you

  Verse 2

  You wipe the mud from off your laces Still the first one out the door Loyal through a hundred races Giving more than keeping score

  Chorus

  Peter, Peter, light the fire up Nobody moves us like you do Peter, we are here to fill your cup Happy birthday, we all chose you

  Bridge

  Every year you make it easy Every year you make us stay Sweeter than an orange slice at halftime That's the kind of sweet you bring today

  Chorus

  Peter, Peter, light the fire up Nobody moves us like you do Peter, we are here to fill your cup Happy birthday, we all chose you

  Outro

  Tub is empty, mud still drying One more year of you, we're glad

  Verse 1

  Something's turning in the drum fog is climbing on the glass nobody knows quite what it means but we're glad that you have come

  Chorus

  Peter, light the candles now nothing here could taste much sweeter gather close and make some noise happy birthday, Peter

  Verse 2

  Wool goes spinning round and round softer now than when it began you have got that same slow warmth turning trouble into sound

  Pre-chorus

  Every year you round the edges pull the soft parts from the rough one more turn and here it comes

  Chorus

  Peter, light the candles now nothing here could taste much sweeter gather close and make some noise happy birthday, Peter

  Bridge

  However long this washing takes you're the warmth that never fades we could watch that drum for hours just to stand here where you stay

  Chorus

  Peter, light the candles now nothing here could taste much sweeter gather close and make some noise happy birthday, Peter

  Outro

  Steam still climbs along the glass we're just glad you're ours to keep
