Auld Lang Syne
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
For auld lang syne!
For auld lang syne, my Jo,
For auld lang syne.
We’ll tak a cup of kindness yet
For auld lang syne!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
We twa hae run about the braes,
And pou'd the gowans fine;
But we've wander'd mony a weary fit,
Sin' auld lang syne.
We twa hae paidl'd in the burn,
Frae morning sun till dine;
But seas between us braid hae roar'd
Sin' auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my jo,
For auld lang syne.
We'll tak a cup of kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Now there's a hand, my trusty fere!
And gie's a hand o' thine!
And we'll tak a right gude-willie waught,
For auld lang syne.
For auld, &c.
For auld lang syne, my jo,
For auld lang syne.
We'll tak a cup of kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

BREADCRUMBS
VERSE 1
It’s almost time
To give them up
They’re on my mind
Way too much
They’re sweet like wine
But I can’t get enough
To satisfy
My craving, I’m a slave for BREADCRUMBS
CHORUS 1
BREADCRUMBS
My craving, I’m a slave for
BREADCRUMBS baby
Mmmm … hhmm
Mmmm … hhmm
VERSE 2
When green and gold eyes
Can hold my gaze
They hold my heart
At bay
So no surprise
That I’m ok
Just sittin’ around and
Holding on and jonesing BREADCRUMBS
CHORUS 2
I’m jonesing BREADCRUMBS
I’m holding on and jonesing BREADCRUMBS
BREADCRUMBS baby
Mmmm mmhhmm
Mmmm mmhhmm
I’m holding on and jonesing BREADCRUMBS
Mmmm mmhhmm
VERSE 3
Been on my mind
Should I give you up
When all I want
is you
But love is blind
So I make things up
To justify
Me holding out my hand for BREADCRUMBS
CHORUS 2
BREADCRUMBS
I’m holding out my hand for BREADCRUMBS
BREADCRUMBS baby
Mmmm mmhhmm
Mmmm mmhhmm
I’m holding on and jonesing BREADCRUMBS
BREADCRUMBS baby
Mmmm mmhhmm
Mmmm mmhhmm
(4 bars break)
I’m holding on and jonesing BREADCRUMBS
BREADCRUMBS
BREADCRUMBS baby

We cry…. Again…. Denied
