We're down at the bar
we're havin that talk again
the new year is coming
and things will be different when it begins
gonna get excersize
gonne get healthier
wealthier and wise

I've tried it before
but it never seems to stick
eventually Ill just go back the bar getting drunk
talkin politics

this year
things will be different
things will be different
better
than last year
things will be different
this year

im raising a toast
i'm losing all self control
the champaign is flowing and I'm getting kind of emotional
cuz some thangs are gonna change

CHORUS
no more making up the same excuse
no more runnin cuz it aint no use
i can see it ocming crystal clear
things will be different this year

it's the middle of march
so happy to see you all
i still smoke cigarettes
and spend way too much money on alcohol
i haven't changed at all

CHORUS OUT
