Biography:
Microdisney was an Irish musical duo formed in 1980 by Cathal Coughlan (keyboards, vocals) and Sean O'Hagan (guitar).
Like many bands, who might otherwise have gone unrecognised, they were given a wider audience by BBC Radio 1 DJ John Peel.
They recorded for Virgin and Rough Trade. Albums included the early compilation "We Hate You South African Bastards!" (later renamed "Love Your Enemies"), "Everybody Is Fantastic", "The Clock Comes Down The Stairs", "Crooked Mile" and "39 Minutes".

[Intro]
G F Am7 D
[Verse 1]
C D G Fmaj7
She was tired, it was dawn
C D
When she heard the nurse say
G F
"Here's a baby boy"
C D G Fmaj7
Without fear, zero years
C D
Come to seek damnation
G F
And a veil of tears
C G Bm Cmaj7
And my claim to fame
C G Bm Cmaj7
Is that then I was
C G Bm Cmaj7 F C
That baby bo-y
[Chorus]
G F Am7 D
Birthday girl, rosy and special
G F Am7 D
Will this night last forever?
[Verse 2]
C D G Fmaj7
When I wed, I would dream
C D G F
In a champagne haze of my first affair
C G Bm Cmaj7
Like a private joke
C G Bm Cmaj7
On the one I loved
C G Bm Cmaj7 F C
Between myself and me
[Chorus]
G F Am7 D
Birthday girl, rosy and special
G F Am7 D
Will this night come to an end?
[Instrumental]
C Cm C Cm A7 Am7 A7 Am7
[Verse 3]
C D G Fmaj7
Feed the birds poisoned bread
C D G F
In the square beneath my place of birth
C D G Fmaj7
People die, so will I
C D
Cut and dried and empty
G F
Quite alone
C G Bm Cmaj7
When they bury me
C G Bm Cmaj7
When the people know
C G Bm Cmaj7 F C
Of the baby bo-y
[Chorus]
G F Am7 D
Birthday girl, now I am begging
G F Am7 D
But I still think of that baby
G F Am7 D
Birthday girl, smiling in silence
G F Am7 D
Will this night please come to an end?
