lyrics

I resolve to be more careful.
I resolve to have more care.
I resolve to make the impossible possible.
I resolve to have my way.
All these resolutions, all on New Year's Day.

I resolve to get my shoes shined.
I resolve to go in all blind.
I absolve the absolute, not absolutely, but,
I resolve to have my way.
All these resolutions, all on New Year's Day.

All new challenges.
All news is good new.
Trying to protect myself, collect myself, connect myself, concentrate, not condemn myself.
Reminder on the hand: a ruler or a rubber band.

I resolve to do it once more.
I resolve to be less irate and be more grateful for what it's all for.
And I resolve to save my stories for another boredom.
And I resolve to have my way.
All these resolutions, all on New Year's Day.

I resolve to keep my jokes all cheesy.
I will solve the puzzle, 'cause it's all R-S-T-L-N-Easy.
And I resolve in the summer, or the winter, or the fall, that all will be and I will have my way.

Oh, all these resolutions, all on New Year's Day.
