[Verse 1]
In the morning I wake up
And In the night I sleep
Since the day that I was born
Repeat, repeat, repeat
Brought to this life
Born to this life
Where was I before?
Non-existent? Not at all?
Will I ever know?

[Chorus]
Today is my birthday
And I get one every year
And some day…
Hard to believe
But I'll be buried six feet underground

[Verse 2]
Subconsciously motivated natural instinct
Alter nature for the pleasure
Orthocycline
Flirt with conception
Slow the cycle
Will the baby grow?
Social tradition interference
Control, control, control

[Chorus]
Today is my birthday
And I get one every year
And some day…
Hard to believe
But I'll be buried six feet underground

[Verse 3]
Spinning, spinning
Before I can recall
All the unknown chemicals
Control the cycle
The successive generation
From dust to dust
Burying my grandma
Then give birth to my own daughter

[Chorus]
I'll be dead and gone, no longer around
I'll be buried six feet underground
I'll be dead and gone, no longer around
I'll be buried six feet underground

No Doubt

No Doubt formed in Anaheim, California in 1986. They have created a decade-defining style and have arguably become one of the most recognized bands of their time. The band has consisted of vocalist and frontwoman Gwen Stefani, guitarist Tom Dumont, bassist Tony Kanal, and drummer Adrian Young, as well as several former members—including Gwen’s older brother Eric Stefani.

They found mainstream success following the release of their third studio album Tragic Kingdom in late 1995. It eventually landed at the top of the Billboard charts in 1996, and has sold over 8 million copies as of 2012.
