He's One-Year Old

A boy with a toy, a girl with a curl each more precious than a necklace of pearls Birthday boy's face all covered with cake blew out the candle, then took a break Mommy is hopping from kitchen to table Dad's helping too, as much as he's able But grandma and grandpa are the stars of the show Playing 'Happy Birthday to You' on dueling banjos

Grandma and grandpa should always be "the stars of the show" - their time is probably more valuable.
