Year Wuz Waltz

We struggled and suffered, we sacrificed and sinned
We groveled and gloated [discreetly, of course]
We were defiant yet disciplined
We consumed our views, then voted (or not)

We welcomed the babies while bidding adieu to the dead [pardon my French]
We made someone’s day, and then wrecked it
We questioned the crap that’s been filling our head
—found more there than we’d expected

We quarreled and conquered and compromised and cursed
We rode with the flow and resisted
We accepted at last what we’d spurned at first
—untangled some truth that’d got twisted

We nodded at neighbors whose names we don’t need to know
We wished them a “Happy Whatever”
We longed for some love we lost long ago
—back before we became so damn clever

It’s the holiday season, the end of the calendar year!
Hallelujah! and Hosanna!
It may seem like Armageddon is near
But I think we can blow that off if we wanna

We’ve all got our qualities, our kinks and our quirks
We’re all weird in our wonderful way
We’re indelicate ladies and gentleman jerks
—growing goofier day by day

I wish you a “Happy Whatever” and a merry one, too!
Free from frustration and stress
These times are troubled, but we’ll muddle through
—how we do so is anyone’s guess

It’s the holiday season, the end of the calendar year!
Hallelujah! and Hosanna!
Kinda seems like Armageddon is here
—we can deal with that mañana
