Pass the peanuts
Get the ice out
Roll the rug up
It's today

Though it may not be anyone's birthday
And though it's far from the first of the year
I know that this very minute has history in it
We're here

It's a time for making merry
And I'm for making hay
Tune the grand up
Dance your shoes off
Strike the band up
It's today

Light up the candles
Fill up the punch bowl
Throw confetti, yeah
It's today

Life can also be lived on a weekday
So don't depend on a holiday date
If you need New Year's to bubble
Then order a double and wait... awh... wait
Awh... there's a thank you
You can give life
If you live life
All the way

Call the cops out
Hold the roof down
Pull the stops out
It's today
