LYRICS
Any cheer is good cheer
A New Year
365 around the sun
Another year done

You choose

You lose

Hold dear

Happy New Year

Any cheer is good cheer
A New Year
Night and daylight
Are looking bright

LYRICS
Out of the darkness
The light’s making progress
At least, the night is becoming less
And, If I’m right, there’s more daylight

Out of the shadows
Move into the light
The straight and narrows
Take flight
No more wailing. We’re in for clear sailing
No more flailing. We’re in for smooth sailing

A resolution
To find a solution
This is a new day
Put love into play
A New Year… let’s veer from fear
A New Year… steer into cheer

It’s a New Year here
Let’s steer into the clear

You Can Feel.mp3

LYRICS
I heard on Christmas Day you can feel
It’s the real deal
I heard on Christmas Day you can feel
It’s the real deal

The act of kindness comes upon us
And for at least one day
We find a way
To be kind
It comes to mind
On Christmas Day

I heard on Christmas Day you can feel
It’s the real deal

You can see humanity
See a human being humane
Slightly humane
It doesn’t just remain slightly
You can see humanity spreading growing like a weed
And, we’d appreciate if at least on Christmas Day
You’d find a way to say
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

On Christmas Day
I heard ’em say
I know it’s true
On Christmas Day for me and you
You can feel
It’s the real deal

I heard on Christmas Day you can feel
It’s the real deal

LYRICS
Bring on the lover
Forget the hater
Bring on the lover
No procrastinator

The light will hover
Over you

Smile on your neighbor
Like the creator
Smile on you neighbor
Be something greater

The light will hover
Over you

No collaborator
Of shady character
An elaborator
Of the grandeur

The light will hover
Over you

Welcome to the Land of Wonders.mp3

LYRICS
Welcome to the land of wonders
An experiment in Man’s blunders
Accumulation with the culmination
Man-made self-annihilation

Where fact is stranger than fiction
We’re humans fixed on eradication

Pollution’s fogging up the sky
Never bothering to even ask, “Why”
Pollution’s fouling the waterfowl
We shrug our shoulders and say, “Oh, well.”

Where fact is stranger than fiction
We’re humans fixed on eradication

The natural order we re-arrange
Resulting in human induced climate change
Ice is melting. Sea level is rising.
You’d think by now we’d be realizing

Where fact is stranger than fiction
We’re humans fixed on eradication

LYRICS
Welcome the new year
Happy you’re here
Now that this year is so near
It’s kind-of already passing us by
What will we do
Happy New Year
We’ll have to get through
Happy New Year
We’ll have to make do

It’s that time of year
When you want to make some sort-of a resolution
I would suggest a revolution
Against a resolution you won’t keep
Because we can’t weep…
No, we can’t weep any more
Too many dead on the floor
We’re tired of crying
I’m just saying…
It’s time for a happy new year
Happy New Year

It will be better than before
We can do so, so much more

Happy New Year!

LYRICS
Yes, it’s really, really hear
Despite their doom and fear
Happy New Year
Happy New Year!

Though the Mayan calender may end
Even after, you’ll be my friend
Happy New Year!

In case, I’m not clear
To all those I hold dear
Happy New Year
Happy New Year!

Now raise your glass… a toast!
To the time of year we love most
Yes, raise your mug of beer
Happy New Year!
