📜 Lyrics
Back in 1899
Everybody sang "Auld Lang Syne"
A hundred years would take a long, long time
For every little boy and girl
Now there's just one thing that I would like to know
Where did the twentieth century go
I swear it was there just a minute ago
All over this world
All over this world
All over this world
The twentieth century is almost over
All over this world (justify the path)
Does anybody 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 them linoleum floors
Petroleum jelly and two world wars?
They went around in revolving doors
All over this world
All over this world
All over this world
The twentieth century is almost over
Almost over, almost over
The twentieth century is almost over
All over this world
Ol' father time is a-rumblin' and a-rappin'
Standin' at the window, thumpin' and a-tappin'
Everybody's waitin' for somethin' to happen
I 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
The twentieth century is almost over
Almost over, almost over
The twentieth century is almost over
All over this world
All over this world
All over this world
The twentieth century is almost over
Almost over, almost over
The twentieth century is almost over
All over this world, yeah
All over this world
All over this world
The twentieth century is almost over
Almost over, almost over
The twentieth century is almost over
All over this world
Everybody sang "Auld Lang Syne"
A hundred years would take a long, long time
For every little boy and girl
Now there's just one thing that I would like to know
Where did the twentieth century go
I swear it was there just a minute ago
All over this world
All over this world
All over this world
The twentieth century is almost over
All over this world (justify the path)
Does anybody 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 them linoleum floors
Petroleum jelly and two world wars?
They went around in revolving doors
All over this world
All over this world
All over this world
The twentieth century is almost over
Almost over, almost over
The twentieth century is almost over
All over this world
Ol' father time is a-rumblin' and a-rappin'
Standin' at the window, thumpin' and a-tappin'
Everybody's waitin' for somethin' to happen
I 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
The twentieth century is almost over
Almost over, almost over
The twentieth century is almost over
All over this world
All over this world
All over this world
The twentieth century is almost over
Almost over, almost over
The twentieth century is almost over
All over this world, yeah
All over this world
All over this world
The twentieth century is almost over
Almost over, almost over
The twentieth century is almost over
All over this world
