What was '06 for? What defines it as a special one? Was it particularly long? Was it especially fun?
What was '06 for? Did it treat us any differently? Were the things that happened really All that extraordinary?
This year was just like any other year The war was just the same old silly war Like beer just tastes like any other beer It's the same as the last year and the year before
So let's move on You can't lament these fickle days Just close your eyes and drink champagne And toss this washed up year away
A year is like a library book It's only ours on loan It's just another year flown It's just another year blown
What was '06 for? Let's look at it realistically Its only asset's recency What did it really mean to me?
I guess I had a pretty good year I bought a leather sofa, which was a dream of mine And it only cost four hundred quid It's amazing all the savings you can make online
And I've been sticking to low glycemic foods With the aim of trying to stay in shape And it's also been good for my moods So I don't snap at my wife when she's running late
These things may seem petty on a global scale I could live in Lebanon or Pakistan But recently I had to do a tour in Wales So suffering is something that I understand
And any New Year's guilt Any empathy we feel Will be neatly overcome With a shandy and a meal
If there's one thing we can count on It's our comforting amnesia '06 was was bloody Africa '05 was Indonesia But the Tsunami of immediacy Washed away the flood of grief And revealed a layer of naïve optimism underneath
So let's move on You can't lament these fickle days Just close your eyes and drink champagne And toss this washed up year away
A year is like a guinea pig It's cuter when it's gone It's just another year flown It's just another year blown
And there'll always be another But not for my Grandmother For her there won't be any more For '06 was the last year for my nana
What was '06 for? Is it time we all just moved along? So, my paternal granny's gone I've still got another one
What was '06 for? Is it just another year flown? Is it just me or has this year flown? You turn your back and the damn thing's gone Time flies when you're having fun
So let's move on You can't lament these fickle days Just close your eyes and drink champagne And toss this washed up year away
A year is like an elephant You're not allowed to take one home It's just another year flown It's just another year blown
A year is like virginity You only miss it once it's gone It's just another year flown It's just another year blown Should all of us be getting going? Should all of you be heading home?Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
