The fireworks start at midnight
but nothing else is planned
The unfamiliar road ahead
is hard to understand
We may be bound for heaven
We may be going to hell
Or maybe somewhere in between
but only time will tell
The pundits are divided
The fortune tellers too
Though some insist that all is well
Some wonder if it’s true
We’re entering the great unknown
A place we’ve never been
Welcome to the future:
this is Twenty-Seventeen
