Burford Birthday

He’s the brain in the room, sharp as a knife
Best squash player in Perth life
Got the speed, got the swing, got the fire in his hand
And if you’re on the court, mate, you don’t stand a chance

He’ll smash a rally, then smash a red
Cycling on the TV when he should be in bed
Aussie pride, he’ll shout it loud
Kangaroo’s jealous, beer in the crowd

Michael Burford, brother of mine
Smartest guy I know, Sportsman, great dad, and a mate so true
Raise your glass, we’re singing for you!

Late nights, lycra, Tour de France dreams
He’s yelling at the telly with the midnight screams
Got the heart of a lion, the soul of a friend
And a wine rack that never seems to end

AI genius, loyal, and strong
Honest to the bone, where he belongs
Great dad, husband, legend, no doubt
But pour another Shiraz, mate, we’re running out

Michael Burford, brother of mine
Smartest guy I know, Sportsman, great dad, and a mate so true
Raise your glass, we’re singing for you!

He’s an Aussie through and through,
Sunburnt nose and thongs for shoes
Squash court king, the crown’s on him
Even Federer’s scared to step in the gym

You’ve mastered code, sport, and being a dad…
But shouting on the wallabies? Nah mate, still debugging that.

Michael Burford, brother of mine
Smartest guy I know, Sportsman, great dad, and a mate so true
Raise your glass, we’re singing for you!
