Aunque Concrete Blonde surgió en Los Ángeles en 1982 (como Dream 6), el grupo no publicó ningún LP hasta 1987. Su insistente control creativo les creó problemas con muchas discográficas, pero I.R.S. asumió el riesgo publicando su debut homónimo, que sonó demasiado a The Pretenders. Dos años más tarde, "Free" se reveló como un trabajo más sólido donde brilló la composición de Johnette Napolitano. El álbum produjo el éxito para adolescentes

Hi there. I worked this out myself so its not 100% guaranteed but I think its pretty right, as for the lyrics.. they are off the top of my head.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY - by Concrete Blonde -------------- off the album 'Free'
FAm Outside in the hall there's a cat-fight BbC Its just after midnight, I guess I'll be alright
Laying out on the floor, drunk and poor. How much longer, how much more.
Oh rock me to sleep, strong and deep. Screaming cats they give me the creeps
But aside from all that I feel no pain, Staring up at the ceiling stains.
BbF Neon in the window, BbF Sirens far away, BbF News on the radio GmBbF Happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday
Well the cat next door, this whole floor, I swear they're out to drive me crazy.
But not right now, I'm high as a cloud, I'm soft and grey and lazy.
Smoking out the window, Feeling far away, News on the radio Happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday
(solo I think about now)
Throw me out the window Somewhere far away News on the radio Happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday Happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday
there you go, if anything is wrong with it I will repost .. I use 6th string roots for some of the verses to get that muting.
