The New Year Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
So this is the new year
And I have no resolutions
Or self-assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions
[Bridge]
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 the 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
[Outro]
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
