    Does it have a melody?

    Our friend group has a weird in-joke birthday song that’s faster and has synchronized clapping. It doesn’t drag like og birthday song, plus it’s a real power move in a busy restaurant to have 20 people scream-shouting a coordinated song no one else has heard before. I think a key feature of the song’s success is it has a few slower intro notes/words that one person can sing and it cues everyone else to jump in and in sync.

      The 6th syllable of each line is… I want to say a full tone down? Then the “hey” is a tone or two up. I’m not super musically inclined, so I’m not sure I could tell you which notes.
