New Year's Day, lyin' next to my bed

With a hand in my pants and a song in my head

About being depressed 'til I figured out it ain't the 90's anymore

I looked through a Raygun and looked through a spin

Then I ripped out the pages of clothes that were in

Then threw my Pumas and tried to put it all behind me

And Mona Lisa smiled as I was walkin' out the door

She said, "You know, you gotta keep it real, just like the year before"

I second that emotion and 20, 000 more

'Cause I could change and you could change

But everybody would stay the same

I could change and you could change

But everybody would stay the same, I know

Still on vacation with nothin' to do so

I got in my car and I got a tattoo

Just to cover up the one that I got of you when I was drinkin'

I really only now regret the things I haven't done

And stayin' under covers in the dark it ain't no fun

You know I'd rather take my glasses off and stare right at the sun

'Cause I could change and you could change

But everybody would stay the same

I could change and you could change

But everybody would stay the same, I know, I know

I could change and you could change

But everybody would stay the same

I could change and you could change

But everybody would stay the same, I know

Hey, hey, hey

I know, I know, I know, I know
