Yotam's birthday songs are pretty much the one event every year I look forward to the most, together with E3 it's why I like June so much :D

It's my birthday today
but i dont want to partay
cause there are other important
things on my mind
its not the finals results
its not my body that revolts me
it just makes me feel a little bit crummy
im being drafted to the army
three years sounds alarming
not sure what do
i guess il have to sit through
some office job not that thrilling
well at least theres no killing
involved in my service
yet im still pretty nervous
its my birthday today
and im not sure what to say
i guess, i gues this thing ddidnt come out very funny
but i am blaming the army...
its my birthday today
and i dont wanna celebrate
cause the army is making my future look bleak
well at least i can drink

Im 20 today a weird feeling id say
like im supposed to straighten my back
what do people do when they get here too
do we know or do we just make it up
get a job get a home find a girl play some golf
drink whisky straight without doing a face
fix the shelf change some bulbs be a fan of a sport
punch a clock, youre close to the mark
but i might not be fit for that
with every year slowly grows my fear
that im not where i should be
if i were 16 than this would have been
a hell a lot more impressive
get a dumb hobby, bottle your beer
punch your wife in the face, have a son whose not a queer
make a good eulogy, partake in fantasy
football of course i aint gay
but i might still not be fit for that
it'll probbly be just like last year
with a different number
higher expectations with every year
oh dear

Oh boy it seems I'm 21
It's been another year
I guess I should confess
About my existential fears
And yes it may depress
But dont digress just take a knee
If you're a lady take my lap,
must be over 18
I've figured what I love to do, that's great
Yet still I sometimes hesitate
If tortured artists is my fate
I need to stop and calculate
The time I spend here in this room
Whether it points to social doom
Assess the data then resume
B#m / E7 / A7
And I'm still
Not sure what to do
With these hands
When I'm out
And the ladies? Oh they love me
They wont take a minute's break
JK my love life's reminiscent
Of sad turtle's in the shade
But then again I don't try
Trusting it'll drop by,
If not well oh my,
I guess it's more bro time
My life - always constant
Producing more content
Ten years in the making
and proud of product
Productive but snoozin'
The muse is elusive
enough with excuses
sit down and induce it
but do not abuse it
And I'm still
Not sure what to do
With these hands
When I'm out

here we go again
now im 23
its almost as if
every year i grow another year
and maybe you will
hear me out when
i tell you im sick of these
birthday vids
forcing me to summarize
get my feelings organized
i despise this process
of retrospective nonsense
but im 8 years deep
with this tradition it's too late to
skip a year
maybe ill round it up
to 10 and
take a break
enjoying these in hind sight
just might
be the only reason that i still try to write
songs
and maybe im not wrong
when i think
that i dont have much to discuss
yet i must
i feel that if i dont some will get
really pissed off at me
its not supposed to be
like this
but im 8 years deep
most of my conscious life has been just this
and i miss the increase of love that has since passed
i wasted time, and time's money so did some freelance

well I'm 24
and yes it seems i hit the floor
as far as youtube goes
at least that's what my analytics show
i wanna make money failing
but that 13 to 17 demo's bailing
algorithms change and now i'm trailing
and i don't value this enough
when ennui sets in its tough
but you could call my bluff
and i've been reeling back
from freelance ptsd
previously i wasn't aware of how
inadequate people could be
oh yeah, everyone's making it up
as they go along
head of a fox is fine
furries don't get me wrong
stressing on why could make you mad
life is existence - existing aint bad
and i don't value this enough
when ennui sets in its tough
but you could call my bluff
I'm not hanging by a thread
repetitions in my head
playing sad pretend
please no pity
i like sad songs its in me
my favorite movie's
spare me the pity though
i cant repeat it all
the time - i like sad songs that rhyme

B / C#m / D#m / F#
well im 25 and my brain is done evolving been
revolving on this office chair surprised that im not growing
and the muse has been ignoring all of my texts
but im not dissecting messages im cashing some checks
doing what you love is great but its confusing
no excuse for being hindered, held by life its your choosing
and this environment's conducive to subtracting and reducing
sometimes an office seems seducing
B / D# /x7989x / x7988x /
im getting to the age where age doesn't mean much
cause no one grows up were awaiting symptoms
B / C#m / D#m / F#
rolling worries medicating on my own and when i
wake up in the morning with no work i walk around bemoaned
and this nocturnal lifestyle leads to certain roads and certain turtles
they return to shades perhaps where they belong
so you say these songs get sadder every year
just consider that i sit here with intent to share some fears
i dont intend to share my figures but im moving so its clear
that my depiction of myself is not as tough as life reveals
B / D# /x7989x / x7988x /

well im 26
and you deserve and update
been deserted by the clicks
analytics they're mocking me
i still want to
make - financially
caring for cats and homes
scary like catacombs
candid desires
hung waiting to dry off
but i still want to
make - so id
thank you if you
wait
cant promise nothing
great
in need of an outlet
that takes less time
or lower the already low
standard i define
to throw more at the wall
to break a pattern and evolve
to try and solve alas
dissolve

Well im 28
I missed ya Sorry Im late
Work had me deep in debate
Deciding whether we should celebrate
My absence has been pestering
me festering inside,
with no engagements in sight
an aptness to romanticize
so ive been working
quietly
taking baby sized steps
bulking up my defense
claims im
still trying
not shooting for stars
can barely aim at the clouds
crowds growing flurried and douse me
with the sweetest eulogies
oh jeez, take this with ease
life is but a breeze
and I hope to appease
im on my knees
ive been working
quietly
quench your thirst youll be nursed
its anatomy
its you and me
theres ought to be
more

about
I've been writing a song for my birthday every year since I was 16, starting in 2007. These are all of the birthday songs so far. Birthdays 16-22 were re-recorded since the old ones were of pretty bad quality, the rest just got remastered.
