Welcome 2017
New Years Day, ready or not, surely comes.
In quiet celebrations or barroom brawls,
Joys and pains may bring delight or bedlams.
Confetti falls and men toast one and all.
In quiet celebrations or barroom brawls,
The junction of laughs and fears, then, begins.
Confetti falls and men toast one and all.
Man celebrates the day with tears and grins.
The junction of laughs and fears, then, begins.
Fancy floats and scary dragons walk streets.
Man celebrates the day with tears and grins.
Wild football games host winners and defeats.
Fancy floats and scary dragons walk streets.
Children watching TV wish to be there.
Wild football games host winners and defeats.
Men drink beer, shout and watch each move with care.
Children watching TV wish to be there.
Safely at home some parents enjoy fun.
Men drink beer, shout and watch each move with care.
Celebrating at home makes family one.
Safely at home some parents enjoy fun.
Joys and pains may bring delight or bedlams.
Celebrating at home makes family one.
New Years Day, ready or not, surely comes.
