The Twentieth Century Is Almost Over

Back in 1899, everybody sang

'Auld Lang Syne'

A hundred years would take

A long, long time for every boy and girl

Now, there's just one thing that I would like to know

Where did the 20th century go?

I swear, it was there just a minute ago

All over this world

All over this world

All over this world

The 20th century is almost over, almost over, almost over

The 20th century is almost over

All over the world

Does anyone recall the great depression?

I read all about it in the true confession

Sorry, I was late for the recording session

But somebody put me on hold

Did anybody see those linoleum floors

Petroleum jelly and the two world wars?

They went around in revolving doors

All over this world

All over this world

Old father, time is a rumblin' and a rappin'

Standin' at the window, thumpin' and a tappin'

Everybody's waitin' for somethin' to happen

Hope it don't happen to you

You know, the Judgement Day is gettin' nearer

There it is in the rear view mirror

If you duck down I could see a little clearer

All over this world

All over this world

All over this world

All over this world
