2017

Hey kid, whatcha doing here Has it already been a year Father time is all grown up 2017 I wish you luck Years gone by to tell the truth Have been more than a bit rough on you It's time to pass off the baton To the new kid on the block This new kid to come along We hope to fatten him all up With the best of everything All the goodies life can bring We'll treat this year like no other Save the baby and bathwater Keep him around until he's old Polishing the silver, shining the gold As every year we hold out hope That this one's not all that she wrote Oh and if you don't mind, One more thing Will you get the phone... I think I hear the New Year ring
