[MAME]
Light the candles
Get the ice out
Roll the rug up
It's today
Though it may not be anyone's birthday
And though it's far from the first of the year
I know that this very minute has history in it
We're here!

[ALL]
It's a time for
Making merry
And so I'm for
Making hay

[MAME]
Tune the grand up
Dance your shoes off
Strike the band up
It's today!

[ALL]
And we're living
And we're well, gang
So raise hell, gang
While we may
[MAME]
Call the cops out
Raise the rockets
Pull the stops out

[ALL]
Pull out the stops
It's today
Light the candles
Fill the punch bowl
Throw confetti
It's today

[GIRLS]
Life can also be lived on a weekday
So don't depend on a holiday date
If you need New Year's to bubble
Then order a double and wait
Doo doo doo doo dah

[ALL]
There's a "thank you"
You can give life
If you live life
All the way
Pull the stops out
Hold the roof down
[MAME]
Fellows, watch out!

[ALL]
It's today

It's a time for
Making merry
And so I'm for
Making hay

Tune the grand up
Call the cops out
Strike the band up
Pull the stops out
Hallelujah!
It's today!

[MAME]
Light the sparklers
Crash the cymbals
Blow the bugle
It's today

Someone gave me a wonderful present
Something I needed, and yet, never knew
So start the whistling and clapping
'Cause under the wrapping was you
And we'll give life
Quite a tumble
And we'll live life
All the way!

[ALL]
Call the cops out
Raise a racket
Pull the stops out
It's today!
