 x4
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
for  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 speedtrains, or freeways
there'd  be no distance that can hold us back.
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  (x4)
