It’s the end of the holiday season And one more year is almost in the books It’s time we said good-bye And sang Auld Lang Syne So here’s a final thought from me to you… I can’t wait ‘til this year is last year I can’t wait for this year to pass I can’t wait ‘til this year is last year This year can kiss my royal ass Sure, I might have had a few laughs But these dark times would make Gandhi shiv a cat Everyone I know Is feeling fit to blow I’ve got one last straw and it’s slipping from my grasp I can’t wait ‘til this year is last year I can’t wait for this year to pass I can’t wait ‘til this year is last year This year can kiss my royal ass Nothing changes, I know But to the future we go With a big fuck you to all we've left behind And I’m hoping I can bring you all with me I hope that you all make it through the night I could use the company And hope next year we’ll sing A better song than this one, and we might

about

I wrote this in 2015, which I had thought was a terrible year until I met 2020. It occurred to me this song needed to come out this year, so I gave it a little dusting off and recorded it, just voice and guitar. Hoping to record it again with a full band at some point, but felt it needed to get out there sooner than I could get that done.
