Twenty Three Fifty Nine And Fifty Nine Seconds

On December Thirty First Nineteen Ninety Nine

One Second More And Then One Millenium Ends

January First Two Thousand We're In New Time

๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธโŒ›๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธ

In Just Two Seconds We Left The Nineteen Hundreds

And Now You Know That We Are In The Two Thousands

You Need To Put Two Thousand On Your Cheque Numbers

But You Know You'll Still Put Yesterday's Date, Damn, Damn

๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธโŒ›๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธ

Such A Short Time, So Much Has Changed, Millenium Bug

The Figment Of The Scammers' Imagination

A New Year, A New Century, Slow As A Slug

And Fast As Light Into The New Millenium

๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธโŒ›๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธ

So This Was Our First New Year's Day Celebration

As We All Came Into This New Millenium
