I still believe in New Year's Eve
Don't need the parties and sloppy scenes
But even if I just stay home and sleep
I'll have another one if you please
Here's to all my friends and enemies
Let's file away our animosities
Fight against the war of fear
It could rid us to a real bad year
Should old acquaintance be forgot
Should old acquaintance be forgot
Now there's a song we all should sing,
when the chimes of midnight ring
No matter how you got somewhere,
just embrace the fact you're there
It was at this hour so long ago,
in a black forest of virgin snow
Asked myself what am I doing here,
Should old acquaintance be forgot?
Should old acquaintance be forgot?
I still believe in New Year's Eve
No matter how messed up it gets
I'm not throwing in the big towel
I got a couple weeks left to do
Maybe a decade, maybe two
Watching each day disappear
Should old acquaintance be forgotten,
Should old acquaintance be forgotten,
Happy New Year, Earthlings! you
