Happy New Year - Spike Jones
Happy new year
Happy new year
This is my new year's resolution
When my mother in law begins
To yell and shout
Through the window
I would like to throw her out
But I resolve not to do it here is why
I'm afraid of hitting someone passing by
This is my new year's resolution
Happy new year
Happy new year
When I'm at the movies
Watching a love seen
And a lady's hat is blocking
Half the screen
I resolve not to shout
Take off that hat
I'll remove it gently
With a baseball bat
This is my new year's resolution
When I take a lovely lady out to eat
And she orders caviar instead of meat
I resolve to let the lady have her fill
And of course I'll also
Let her pay the bill
This is my new year's resolution
Happy new year
When I'm sitting with my wifey on a bus
And a dear old lady stands in front of us
I resolve to be a gentleman discreet
I'll politely offer her my wifey's seat
This is my new year's resolution
When my mother says
Come in it's time to eat
And I keep on playing games out
In the street
I resolve to rush right home now
When I'm called
'Cause my pop just
Got a hairbrush and he's bald
This is my new year's resolution
On the radio this year I hope to score
With some funny jokes
You've never heard before
I resolve not to tell a corny joke
Hello what's that the church
Burned down holy smoke
This is my new year's resolution
In this coming year
I'm going to be discreet
Have the slicker's playing music
Soft and sweet
I resolve to treat tchaikovsky tenderly
And set his second movement with tnt
