Three cheers for the year that was
Good bye, good riddance, pip-pip
Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind?
No play
No friends
No easy amends
It’s been a year of stoic upends
Adios, toodle-oo, so long
Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And days of auld lang syne?
No singing
No get togethers
No swimming with pals
It’s been a year of strange rationals
Ciao, see you later, adieu
For auld lang syne, my dear, For auld lang syne
No fun
No movies
No popcorn to throw
It’s been a year of traveling slow
Farewell, sayonara, safe travels
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet, For days of auld lang syne
No beach
No ball
No courts to compete
It’s been a year of endless defeat
Au-revoir, ta-ta, peace out
For auld lang syne, my dear, For auld lang syne
No more masks
No more distance
No more temperature checks
We’re done with these uncertain treks
No more virtual
No more hybrid
No more weird requests
We’re done with these Covid tests
Bye-bye, Godspeed, Cheerio
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet, For days of auld lang syne
Let’s jump
Let’s play
Let’s throw it away
Let’s shoot
Let’s sing
Let’s laugh and swim
Let’s gather together and depart for fair weather
Toodeloo, hooroo, later dude
For auld lang syne, my dear, For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet, For days of auld lang syne
We can’t say we’re not sorry to see you go
We’re done with you and that heavy woe
Don’t let the door hit you... as you go
Three cheers for the year that was
Hip-hip hooray
Hip-hip hooray
Hip-hip, hip-hip, hip-hip hooray
Three cheers for the year that was
