I WAS A KID NEVER SAW IT COMING JUST LIKE A DREAM FEELS LIKE LAST NIGHT BRIGHT LIGHT MY BODY WAS FROZEN THEY HAD CONTROL THEY HAD MY MIND I WAS COLD FELT LIKE MY BLOOD WAS BOILING THERE’S NO NOISE BUT I COULD TELL THEY WERE INSIDE THEN MY LIFE PLAYED JUST LIKE A MOVIE THROUGH MY EYES THEY READ MY MIND ON REPEAT THEY WATCHED MY MOM AND DAD CHRISTMAS EVE, DANCING IN THE KITCHEN THEY COULDN’T BELIEVE THEIR EYES THEY HAD NEVER SEEN LOVE NEW YEARS DAY I AWAKE TO FIND I’M ALL ALONE…TO FIND NO ONE AT HOME…I’M ALL ALONE

Ruby, oh my dear You ain’t like everyone You know where you come from And why you’ve gone Ruby, don’t you know You’re made for better things No bibs or apron strings drag you down No, no They’ll never bring you low Just one more stair to go Say good fortune baby Ruby, don’t you fade You’ll never be that fool skipping rocks with jewels all greyed and sour Ruby, climb those stairs are your fingers feeling numb? does your heart beat like a drum? Must be painful No, no They’ll never bring you low Just one more stair to go Say good fortune baby Oh, Ruby, did you slip? You wouldn’t be the first the fortune teller’s curse is what you make it Ruby, odds are stacked oh, can you dance with doom? can you make a little room For someone else? No, no They’ll never bring you low Just one more stair to go Say good fortune baby

I know this song is recorded with many tracks but this is a DISCO song for new year's day so it's gotta be a danceable arrangement. Hope you enjoy it tho! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

2020 2020 kiss it goodbye Too many teardrops and too many lies The great mistake will fade into history The great mistake will fade away 2020 it disappeared too many cigerettes and Too much beer Empty sidewalks muted streets all around and everyone is breaking down La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La Happy New Year every one Fingers crossed for 2021 The great mistake will fade into history The great mistake will fade away La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La 2020 kiss it goodbye 2020 kiss it goodbye 2020 kiss it goodbye

Intergalactic Lovers They loved each other from afar The man from Earth, the woman from Mars Traveling together in search of a star To find the salve for all of their scars They were Romeo and Juliet in the sky In the dark abyss they were the light On shooting stars the lovebirds would fly On sunbeams by day, moonbeams by night Intergalactic lovers They were soon to discover Intergalactic bonds hover Over worlds undiscovered They planned to meet Christmas day Though it’s impossible, you say The distance was sure to delay Their clandestine holiday Flying through the sky No one can deny Love in the air tonight Brings us all nigh

They came from on high, one bright new night from the other side of our satellite They saw our thumbs And beamed us up A road trip to the stars with you On the far side the moon There's room enough for two (Out of sight out of mind ) Soon we were in a terrarium In reception on the mothership They chipped our brains And bliss was all there was In this moonbowl with you Here's to our lizard overlords They haven't eaten us today They brought a brand new day

v1: Was it the worst year? Probably so, but who's counting It all seems crystal clear and I think we should talk about it... a little more ch: Did we learn? Did we grow? I doubt it, but who knows We could all come out fine, I suppose ----- Did we love? Did we care? Were we even aware? Of the pain that seemed to be everywhere v2: Will we get better? Probably not, but I'm hopeful Sooner than later Hear me out, here's my proposal... such as it is ch: I tried to be strong I wrote a couple of decent songs But I'm not sure that will help us get along ----- We've got to learn to lose our pride Learn to see the other side But it's no fun to go along for that ride -- some sort of solo -- v3: so... happy new year What will we do when the change comes? The things we hold so dear The sacred & the profane ones... it's all we've got ch: Will we lay down our guns? Should we try to have some fun? Can we hang up our shoes, when at last the race is run?

Alpha Centauri just ain’t the same Everything on this starship is lame Got written up for holideck time Forgot to clean that mess in grid nine Spending my Christmas in a dive bar Kinda low grav, so drinking is hard Think I can manage I’ve got a straw Now I’ve got something stuck in my craw I got a funny feeling inside Broken heart syndrome, or wounded pride Feeling depressed I turned off the light Hell of a way to spend Christmas night Listen to Klingon opera at home Wondering why you can’t use your phone Here on the lower decks things are weird That’s why I’m drinking Romulan beer On Proxima B It was just you and me Thought that this time would go differently Don’t know what to think You were gone in a wink This Vulcan egg nog’s a shitty ass drink

There’s a new year comin’ I don't know about you But I’m prayin for the best Can’t risk deja vu I'll hang lemons in doorways Avoid cryin' cats If we have a party, Keep the bed free of hats If you want good luck and prosperity You better eat your collard greens and your black-eyed peas Call me superstitious, call me a fool But a bad luck year just sounds too cruel Eat twelve grapes Open the doors When the clock strikes twelve, Kiss the one you adore If you’re looking for love And a steamy New Year Make yourself a wish While wearin' red underwear If you want good luck and prosperity You better eat your collard greens and your black-eyed peas Call me superstitious, call me a fool But a bad luck year just sounds too cruel You better skip the lobster That backwards crawl Could really set you back And be your downfall If you can find a way, Then repair your shoes Put some money in your wallet Fill your cupboards with food If you want good luck and prosperity You better eat your collard greens and your black-eyed peas Call me superstitious, call me a fool But a bad luck year just sounds too cruel

New Year’s Day Pull myself through With whatever it takes Every time seems it’s getting too late Clocks all gone Everybody’s going home So much to clean up I’m just a stranger in my own mind I’m just a stranger in my own mind Carry the cause Give me the fire enough to hang on to Give me the fire give me the warmth inside To Carry the load Give me some life See there is so much more When there’s gold to the page I never seem to learn Keep too much to make any sense of it all Keep too much to make any sense of it all Get it out I don’t care set it on fire So much less to go through Throw it all away like it’s New Year’s Day

about

This week’s assignment comes from George:

“Write a song having anything do with a new year.
OR write a Christmas love story that at least partially takes place in outer space. I’m probably going with the former, but who knows? Bonus points for incorporating it all.”
