Από το άλμπουμ τους Super Trouper του 1980 , με κύρια φωνητικά από την Agnetha Fältskog .
Είχε αρχικά μια πολύ περιορισμένη κυκλοφορία ως single τον Δεκέμβριο του ίδιου έτους.
Ο τίτλος ήταν του τραγουδιού ήταν αρχικά “Daddy Don’t Get Drunk on Christmas Day”.
No more champagneAnd the fireworks are throughHere we are, me and youFeeling lost and feeling blueIt’s the end of the partyAnd the morning seems so greySo unlike yesterdayNow’s the time for us to say
Happy New YearHappy New YearMay we all have a vision now and thenOf a world where every neighbor is a friendHappy New YearHappy New YearMay we all have our hopes, our will to tryIf we don’t we might as well lay down and dieYou and I
Sometimes I seeHow the brave new world arrivesAnd I see how it thrivesIn the ashes of our livesOh yes, man is a foolAnd he thinks he’ll be okayDragging on, feet of clayNever knowing he’s astrayKeeps on going anyway
Happy New YearHappy New YearMay we all have a vision now and thenOf a world where every neighbor is a friendHappy New YearHappy New YearMay we all have our hopes, our will to tryIf we don’t we might as well lay down and dieYou and I
Seems to me nowThat the dreams we had beforeAre all dead, nothing moreThan confetti on the floorIt’s the end of a decadeIn another ten years timeWho can say what we’ll findWhat lies waiting down the lineIn the end of eighty-nine
Happy New YearHappy New YearMay we all have a vision now and thenOf a world where every neighbor is a friendHappy New YearHappy New YearMay we all have our hopes, our will to tryIf we don’t we might as well lay down and dieYou and I
