"THE DAY IT WENT DOWN"
(Verse 1)šØ 1788, the fleet touched down, Australiaās history, laid on ground. 1905, diamonds shine, Cullinan found in a South African mine. (Verse 2)š¾ 1926, TV in sight, Logie Baird showed the world black and white. 1928, down underās turn, First Aussie broadcast, let the screens burn. (Verse 3)š£ 1965, India speaks, Hindiās the law, no room for tweaks. Paul Newman born, Van Halen, too, Legends rise when the date comes through. (Verse 4)š¦ 1988, Dorothea Puenteās name, A serial killer with a deadly aim. Landladyās house, a graveyard there, Her victims met an untimely scare. (Verse 5)š¤ 2019, scooters on sight, Brisbane thieves ran wild that night. Biggest spree the city had seen, Vandals left āem broke and lean. (Verse 6)š„ 2022, Redcliffe scene, A recumbent trike, locked down clean. Cut the bolt, gone in the night, A stolen ride, a silent flight. (Outro Setup )š Funny thing was, although these all happened in different years, The one thing that they all have in common is something with you, Mr. Cade. And thatās that they all happened on the same date, The day that your body was laid. Like a brick in a wall, your body was laid. š¾ Today we toast to Aquariusās light, To Cadeās bold mind, sharp and bright. Innovative, eccentricāhe stands apart, With intellect and an open heart. A birthday wish for a friend so smart.Ā Ā š£ Though humanitarians Aquarians are said to be, Socially aware? Not quite Cade, I see. But analytical? Yes, blow for blow, Your sharp wit matches mine, that I know. Hereās to eccentricityāwe let it show. š¦ Friendly and approachable, that's up for debate, But your quirks and crystals, to me, are great. Clear quartz in hand, you heat and sniff, Exploring the world in your own unique riff. Your way of life gives the mundane a lift. š¤ Geologyās wonders, our shared delight, Lapidary crafts in the guildās soft light. Few understand this passion we hold, For stones that glimmer and tales theyāve told, A bond between us worth more than gold. š„ Adaptable? Eh, not with my Snap, But Iāll let that slideāno need to clap. Your humorās dry, your tasteās refined, A rare soul, Cade, one of a kind. So hereās to you, with thoughts aligned. š Another year older, wiser too, Hereās to the magic only you can do. May crystals sing and the stones inspire, Your lifeās a spark, a burning fire. Happy Birthday, Cade, A Good man, I admire! Happy Birthday Red's Quality Reds šš„š¤š¦ š£š¾šØ
