My New Year's Resolution was stop using words
At a time when words were all that I had
I realised that I could do whatever I wanted
And that froze me in Limbo real bad
Finally, I went downstairs to the party
And I said to my mom and my dad
"Happy New Year
Happy New Year"

I had also resolved to give up clichés
Because those are annoying and dumb
Caught up in dreams of word versus deed
I was pinned under language's thumb
But words are just endings
To use while you're waiting
For some new beginning to come
Happy New Year
Happy New Year

The scene by the graves
Where the Prince tries to save
The remains of his old way back when
And the phrase that they use
When the clock breaks the news
That we're starting all over again
Are echoing loud
In my head in this cloud
Where I have kept it since I was aged ten
Happy New Year
Happy New Year
