The New Year

So this is the new year

And I don't feel any different

The clanking of crystal

Explosions off in the distance

In the distance

So this is the new year

And I have no resolutions

It's self-assigned penance

For problems with easy solutions

So, everybody, put your best suit or dress on

Let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once

Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn

As thirty dialogues bleed into one

I wish the world was flat like the old days

Then I could travel just by folding a map

No more airplanes, or speed trains, or freeways

There'd be no distance that could hold us back

There'd be no distance that could hold us back

There'd be no distance that could hold us back

So this is the new year

So this is the new year

So this is the new year

So this is the new year
