We had our shit together And everything was cool Until we met this grifter And he took us to school Now the snow is blowing sideways The secretary says it's rain The truth is in the trash It's totally insane Now it's a new year I'm feeling old, man Is this a bad dream? Is that a spray tan They're selling fake blues to all our real friends No, nobody will believe you 'til the world ends So and so said such and such 'bout something no one said Haranguing everybody who was hanging on a thread You cannot judge a book just by looking at the author And you can't wear my shoes until you fly my saucer Now it's a new year I'm feeling old, man They're serving warm beer inside a cold can I'm taking my cues While Timmy bartends No, nobody will believe you 'til the world ends I try to keep my faith in people 'cause there ain't no way around them And you can't look for your glasses until you've actually found them If your dreams are coming true, be careful what you wish for You want the Second Coming I just want a second encore Well it's another new year So I've been told man And when we're through here check out my old band Releasing outtakes There ain't no top tens No, nobody will believe you 'til the world ends It's a new year I'm feeling old, man Is this bad dream? No, it's solid gold man Until the clouds break I guess the truth bends Buddy, nobody will believe you 'til the world ends Nobody will believe you 'til the world ends
