lyrics

Hey man, how ya’ been?
We heard about the accident
We knew you’d be back
(We) kept your old seat warm.

What’s that new song you sing
Flooded with scandalous flings?
Oblige us with a jingle, simple and plain.

We’re filling our cups the best we can
‘Til they overflow with our grandest plans.
We’re a jovial bunch and know the trap of the inspired.
The quickest to break the cipher, leaves you second to the writer.

Pints are full with no place to go
Just take a look out the window.
Our bellies are warm, and it looks like snow.

How ’bout Christmas imagery?
Another smash of a timpani
A carol, a toast to the new year.

To the new year! To the new year! To the new year!

There are better challenges than noise
Or blank canvases hung on white walls.
We’re a jovial bunch and know the trap of the inspired.
The quickest to break the cipher, leaves you second to the writer.

We’re filling our cups the best we can
‘Til they overflow with our grandest plans.
We’re a jovial bunch and know the trap of the inspired.
The quickest to break the cipher, leaves you second to the writer.
