Happy New Year - Spike Jones & His City Slickers/Guy Lombardo

Happy new year

Happy new year

This is my new year's resolution

When my mother in law begins

To yell and shout

Through the window

I would like to throw her out

But I resolve not to do it here is why

I'm afraid of hitting someone passing by

This is my new year's resolution

Happy new year

Happy new year

When I'm at the movies

Watching a love seen

And a lady's hat is blocking

Half the screen

I resolve not to shout

Take off that hat

I'll remove it gently

With a baseball bat

This is my new year's resolution

When I take a lovely lady out to eat

And she orders caviar instead of meat

I resolve to let the lady have her fill

And of course I'll also

Let her pay the bill

This is my new year's resolution

Happy new year

When I'm sitting with my wifey on a bus

And a dear old lady stands in front of us

I resolve to be a gentleman discreet

I'll politely offer her my wifey's seat

This is my new year's resolution

When my mother says

Come in it's time to eat

And I keep on playing games out

In the street

I resolve to rush right home now

When I'm called

'Cause my pop just

Got a hairbrush and he's bald

This is my new year's resolution

On the radio this year I hope to score

With some funny jokes

You've never heard before

I resolve not to tell a corny joke

Hello what's that the church

Burned down holy smoke

This is my new year's resolution

In this coming year

I'm going to be discreet

Have the slicker's playing music

Soft and sweet

I resolve to treat tchaikovsky tenderly

And set his second movement with tnt
