[Verse 1] Nobody's drinking, nobody's smoking Pretty boring for a New Year's Eve dinner Smiling faces waiting for the countdown My mind is completely elsewhere [Pre-Chorus] Holding tight the phone You said you would have called The clock strikes midnight Not in the mood to toast Ten, nine, eight, seven, six You couldn't care less than this [Chorus] It's a new era You should feel better Welcome to the '20's my dear It's a new era I keep looking around but you're not here When it's supposed to be my year [Verse 2] I came at your place and nobody's sober Glitters and paillettes over their bodies You said, "Oh baby, it's just a masquerade" So how come your tongue is all over her face? [Pre-Chorus] Holding tight my cup You said you would have come The clock strikes midnight Not in the mood to toast Five, four, three, two, one We couldn't be more done [Chorus] It's a new era You should feel better Welcome to the '20's my dear It's a new era I keep looking around but you're not here When it's supposed to be my year [Post-Chorus] I'd give you 20 chances to be happy But you keep losing yourself in endless dances I keep looking around but you're not here When it's supposed to be my year [Bridge] I keep looking around but you're not here When it's supposed to be my year It's just a masquerade It's just a masquerade It's just a masquerade It's just a masquerade! [Verse 3] Clock strikes midnight, not even in the mood to talk Pretty boring for a New Year's Eve dinner Clock strikes midnight and suddenly you're just a ghost Now tell me, what I could have done to make you care at all? [Chorus] It's a new era You should feel better Welcome to the '20's my dear It's a new era I keep looking around but you're not here When it's supposed to be my year [Post-Chorus] I'd give you 20 chances to be happy But you keep losing yourself in endless dances I keep looking around but you're not here When it's supposed to be my year [Outro] Smashing down the phone Yeah, you said you would've called, and now The clock strikes midnight, suddenly you're just a ghost It's not my year at all
