Happy New Year 2026

BATMAN AND CARRUTHERS

Upstairs downstairs or in yer ladies chamber

who can tell what spell will or won't unfold

New Year-ness less we forsake it mistake it

for something or other unpleasant or not

Will we even make it some of us won't

that's for sure the way the clock trickles

like the toxic tears of a clown tic tock down

for another season another reason

for all and sundry to live life to the full

Foolish as it may or may not seem

it's a dream for some and a necessity for others

What's your New Years resolution gonna be

the same as last year but you'll keep it this time

or will you start on February the second like me

So long as it's a Tuesday and the weekend is over

and well and truly behind you Carruthers

Remember what you said about Christmas

when I asked you what day it was on

You said I'm not all that bothered Batman

as long as it's not Friday the thirteenth

Who can tell what spell will or won't unfold

Upstairs downstairs or in yer ladies chamber
