Why do some things stay the same
When some don't?
We say we'll stay 'round when we know
We know we won't
I'm a gross teenager
Trapped in a grown up shape
Need someone to clean up
The mess I've made
Say we'll be fine

My friend, will you fly with me
Into fire, it's New Year's Eve
We're allowed tonight to pretend we are free
Promise me on New Year's Eve

We forget about the problems
We've got time to share
All of the things in the New Year
Got a problem?
Baby let it be
Hop up on my back
Have a happy New Year's Eve

Have a happy New Year's Eve

Why do some things stay the same
When some don't?
Now we're all queens on the screen
Happy and toned
They will stay young and beautiful
Don't cry, please hon'
They said in time you'll be fine

My friend, come get high with me
Hand in hand, it's New Year's Eve
We're allowed tonight to pretend we are free
Promise me on New Year's Eve

We forget about the problems
We've got time to share
All of the things in the New Year
Got a problem
Baby let it be
Hop up on my back
Have a happy New Year's Eve

We forget about the problems
We've got time to share
All of the things in the New Year
Got a problem
Baby let it be
Hop up on my back
Have a happy New Year's Eve

Get so high, oh
Help me baby sail away, sail away
I'm gonna swim so deep
Oh, let it all go
Baby, have a happy New Year's Eve

Have a happy New Year's Eve
