what was ’05 for?
what defines it as a special one?
was it particularly long?
was it especially fun?

what was ’05 for?
did it differ much from ’03?
were the things that happened really
all that extraordinary?

this year was just like any other year
the war was just the same old stupid war
the beer just tastes like any other beer
it’s the same as 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 as a loan
it’s just another year flown
it’s just another year blown

what was 05 for?
let’s look at it realistically
its only -sset’s recency
what did it actually mean to me?

i guess i had a pretty good year
i got my hair permed straight, and it looks quite nice
and it only cost 200 bucks
which is less than i’d seen it advertised

and i’ve been sticking to low-glycemic foods
in a desperate attempt to try and stay in shape
and it’s also been good for my moods
so i don’t snap at sarah when she’s running late

these things may seem petty on a global scale
just look at what pakistan’s been going through
but my roof started leaking in the other day’s hail
so i’ve suffered structural damage too

and let’s be realistic
i’m not trying to be a wanker
but it only took us a month
and we’ve forgotten about sri lanka

if there’s one thing we can count on
it’s our comforting amnesia
we suddenly remember football
and forget about indonesia

cause the tsunami of immediacy
will wash away the flood of grief
and reveal a layer of naive
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 ’05 was the last year for my nana

what was ’05 for?
is it time we all just moved along?
so, my paternal grandma’s gone –
i’ve still got another one!

what was ’05 for?
was it just another year flown?
is it just me or has this year flown?
you turn your back and the d-mn 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

should all of us be going home?
is it time that i got gone?

should auld acquaintance be forgot
and never brought to yore?
should auld acquaintance be forgot
do we know what these words mean anymore?

for auld lang syne, my dear
for auld lang syne
should auld acquaintance be forgot?
it’s just a matter of time
