This Year

[Intro]
For the radio

[Verse 1]
I got this girl by the name of Maria
We sip on sangria, sometimes tequila
It don't really matter as long as I'm faded
Laughin' at nothin', wastin' my days in
Most of my friends are stars or dead broke
Man, I realize their life is just a joke
So I sit here till the rain, once I'm left
I understand I'm blessed to have one last breath
Poppin' old cassettes like the great Slick Rick
Take the wheel, big sip, call the president a prick
In another two years, nobody will rеmember
Maybe I'll gеt a job sometime in September, but

[Pre-Chorus]
Please don't bring me down (Don't bring me down)
I really need somebody around

[Chorus]
I'm standin' in the sunshine
I got music in my ear
Man, my head is in the clouds this year (On and on and on and on)
And I'm lyin' next to someone, but her face ain't all that clear
Man, my head is in the clouds this year

[Post-Chorus]
On and on, we sing
La, la, la, la, la (La, la, la, la, la)

[Verse 2]
Dance all night to this DJ
Ayo, I'm starin' at a girl while the big beat play
I can't speak for tomorrow, but we live tonight
If you keep tippin' glasses, then you'll feel alright
It's the end of the world as I know
So I'll just sit here and look for the next place to go
I'm all out of dough, but I got a great idea
Wipe the gum off my shoe, one shot to stay clear

[Pre-Chorus]
Please don't bring me down (Don't bring me down)
I really need somebody around

[Chorus]
I'm standin' in the sunshine
I got music in my ear
Man, my head is in the clouds this year (On and on and on and on)
And I'm lyin' next to someone, but her face ain't all that clear
Man, my head is in the clouds this year

[Bridge]
So here's your new pop song
Let it rotate all night long (Yeah)
Play this song again with your friends
Good times don't have to end
(On and on and on and on)

[Chorus]
I'm standin' in the sunshine (Alright)
I got music in my ear
Man, my head is in the clouds this year (On and on and on and on)
And I'm lyin' next to someone, but her face ain't all that clear
Man, my head is in the clouds this year
I'm standin' in the sunshine
I got music in my ear
Man, my head is in the clouds this year (On and on and on and on)
And I'm lyin' next to someone, but her face ain't all that clear
Man, my head is in the clouds this year

[Post-Chorus]
On and on, we sing
La, la, la, la, la (La, la, la, la, la)
La, la, la, la, la (La, la, la, la, la)
This year (On and on and on and on)
La, la, la, la, la (La, la, la, la, la)
La, la, la, la, la (La, la, la, la, la)
This year (On and on and on and on)
