Happy Zzzz Year 2017

Happy New Year!

In Time Square, the ball is dropping,

Four-3-2-1, there is no stopping,

It’s a new year, 2017,

Time has flown, if you know what I mean,

So many parties to bring it in,

So many resolutions to be thin,

So many couples kiss at midnight,

So many toasts for a future that’s bright,

Celebrate New Year’s Eve if you dare,

I am usually asleep sitting up in my chair,

I try and try to stay awake,

But I cannot, for goodness sake!

No toast, no kiss, no resolve for me,

I am snoring when the countdown hits three,

Why can I never see the new year in?

Because I am watching the back of my eyelids then.

Zzzzz...
