The New Year

So this is the new year and I don't feel any different

The clanking of crystal and explosions off 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 30 dialogues bleed into one

I wish the world was flat like the old days

So I could travel just by folding the map

No more airplanes or speed-trains or freeways

There'd be no distance that can hold us back
