2020…

We need to talk…

This isn’t working out…

Verse 1

You started out with so much promise when we met you on the Jan the 1st
And sure we’ve had some rough years before, but hands down you’re the worst
I can’t believe that I had the nerve to think that 2019 was bad
Coz compared to you, it feels like, that was the best year we ever had
We planned to party like 1920, now that just seems like a day dream
Coz when Rona hit it was more like partying in 1918
Where face masks were the dress code, no nights out we were kept home
And the closest thing that we came to a club, was queuing outside Tescos
All I want to do is stand in a room and shake my ass to a few tunes
And if I never do another Zoom quiz in my life? Well that’ll be too soon
And usually I try not to curse, well at least that’s what my aim is
But I think I speak, for everyone, in the whole world, when I say this:

Chorus

Fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
Fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
Fuck you 2020!
Coz we’re leaving you

Yeah I said fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
Fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
Fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
For what we’ve been through

Verse 2

2020 you’re the the abusive partner nobody asked for
The year that was able to take bad news and make that into an art from
If Rona had been your only crime, that’d still be unforgivable
But murder hornets and locust plagues, man this shit’s getting biblical
From forest fires Down Under to police violence in the United States
And every time I think you can’t get any worse you somehow find a way
From Kobe Bryant and Black Panther – you took some of our favourite people
But when James Bond can’t even escape you know you’re dealing with pure evil
So that’s reason 2020, we’ve had enough and we’re taking action
And ending it with you this December and pretending that you never happened
But I guess it’s not all bad news this year, at least we got rid of Trump
So 2020 you’re not the only one who’s getting dumped (you’re fired)

Chorus

Fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
Fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
Fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
Coz we’re leaving you

Yeah I said fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
Fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
Fuck you 2020! (Yeah)
For what we’ve been through

Outro x 2

For everyone who’s had a rough year, I hope this song brings some cheer
I know the future is unclear, but there’s better days and there’s sun near
For everyone who’s had a rough year, I hope this song brings some cheer
Coz right now we’ve shed enough tears, yo 2020 we’re done here
