2020 Songtext
von Ben Folds

New Year′s Eve
Don't it seem like decades ago?
Back in 2019
Back when life was slow

Now, it′s June
We're just halfway done
2020, hey, are we having fun?
How many years will we try to cram into one?

We thought we'd be living 1918 again
But we messed that up so bad, God had to toss 1930 in


As the sun rose on 1968 this morning
A tweet from the john
Please, let′s not add the Civil War
How many years will we cram into one?

Oh boy, how much more will she take?
Boys, hope you enjoy your beautiful tax break

We′re not repeating history, just the parts that sucked
2020, what the actual fuck?
Pray we get through, but hey
Don't hold your breath
′Cause there's plenty left to wreck
We got six months left

How many years?
How many years will we try?
How many years will we try to cram into one?
