The new Millennium’s here
And now it is clear
All of the fear
They thought would be near
Just never occurred
So things that we heard
Did never pan out
So all of the hype
Was just of the type
To make people scared
So many had not dared
To go out of house
They stayed like a mouse
All snug in their bed
With covers over head
No we are not dead
And all that ’twas dread
Must so now be said
Just done so to scare
Myself did not care
Because I was aware
That we would survive
So I did not hide
I just took things in stride
And I did not imbibe
I watched the New Year come in
Then I just ran on in
Put my head on the bed
And then soon I was dead
Yes dead to the world
And I started to snore
And now many t’would be bored
If they had looked through our door
But here is how I feel
January 1st is not a big deal
