Wtf are you talking about? There’s only one birthday song.
Are you sure?
Yes.
There’s also the “It’s your birthday, it’s your birthday!” chant that people do. Not The Birthday Song, but a birthday song.
Edit: after researching it, I guess it’s 50 Cent, I’d always heard it, but never knew the source:

I know two. One in my native tongue, and one in english.
The one the restaurants use and the copyrighted one that families use.
Restaurant: “happy happy birthday from all of us to you. We wish it was our birthday so we could party too! Hey!”
Family/copyright: “happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, -name-. Happy birthday to you.”
Except it is not copyrighted anynore
