Christmas comes but once a year and that's a lucky break For when it comes it leaves a trail of chaos in its wake Miles of scrunched-up paper, yards of burning skin An alcoholic vapour 'round the yellow-lidded bin So when the day is over and your relatives have flown Sink into your sofa with an addle-pated groan But come what may on Boxing Day, don't let a second slip: For a grand new year adventure I know the perfect trip Let's swing around the sun Let's head out there on January 1 We'll ride around the circuit, by now you know the way It's an oldie but a goodie, it's our fondest roundelay So play a bar from that well-worn repertoire Let's do another doughnut round that great big star We might as well – I think it could be fun Let's swing around the sun Every year's a battleground and some you're bound to lose It's hard to turn your fate around when fortune turns the screws And if you come a cropper and you're feeling insecure It might not seem improper to decline another tour But put your trust in travel 'cause I'm here to testify: This zillion tons of gravel is the only way to fly And I bet some day along the way your faith will be restored Come sit beside me on the ride, I'm happy you're on board: Letras de canciones Let's swing around the sun Let's wrap this lap and start another one And by my calculations we'll be halfway 'round in June You should pack for all occasions Don't forget to bring the crazy old moon We'll go so far to come back to where we are It's just another doughnut 'round that great big star Let's clock up one more block before we're done Make this the greatest spin we've ever spun Yeah, what the hell, I think it could be fun Let's swing around the sun From Letras Mania
