HAPPY NEW YEAR ( - D. Frost - A. Bouchard - ) Crack the door Shut the light Let's scribble In your book of life Who will fly Who will fight Who won't escape The master of might Who by water Who by fire Licked the tongue of desire Who will shiver Who will shake Who will jump into the lake Who will learn What's at stake Who gave more Than they can take Tell the truth Who's the liar Tossed the promise On the pyre Who by water Who by fire Licked the tongue of desire Who will shiver Who will shake Who will jump into the lake Happy new year baby Here we go around Happy new year baby Big ball coming down Happy new year baby Ready for another round?
