Happy New Year
DJ Jedy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
It′s the end of the party
And the morning seems so grey
So unlike yesterday
Now's the time for us to say...
Happy new year!
Happy new year!
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend.
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don′t, we might as well lay down and die
You and I
Sometimes I see
How the brave new world arrives
And I see how it thrives
In the ashes of our lives
Oh, yes, man is a fool
And he thinks he'll be okay
Dragging on, feet of clay
Never knowing he's astray
Keeps on going anyway...
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try




If we don′t, we might as well lay down and die
You and I

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of DJ Jedy's song "Happy New Year" capture the bittersweet emotions that can accompany the start of a new year. The opening lines, "No more champagne and the fireworks are through," suggest that the celebratory moments have come to an end. The singer and their companion are left feeling lost and blue, symbolizing a sense of emptiness and uncertainty.


The mention of the morning feeling grey and unlike yesterday further emphasizes this feeling of disillusionment. The party is over, and now it is time for reflection and introspection. The chorus, "Happy new year, may we all have a vision now and then, of a world where every neighbor is a friend," expresses the desire for a better future, where people can coexist harmoniously and peacefully.


In the second verse, the lyrics delve into a commentary on human nature. The singer reflects on the arrival and thriving of a brave new world, which rises from the ashes of their lives. This can be interpreted as a metaphor for resilience and the potential for growth after facing challenges and hardships. However, the lyrics also acknowledge the flaws of mankind, describing man as a fool who is oblivious to his own mistakes and blindly carries on. This suggests that without self-awareness and growth, people are destined to repeat their errors.


The chorus is repeated, highlighting the importance of maintaining hope and the will to try. Without these qualities, the lyrics suggest that one might as well give up and "lay down and die." This line represents the choice between actively pursuing change and improvement, or succumbing to hopelessness. The song concludes with the repetition of the phrase "You and I," emphasizing the unity and shared responsibility that humanity bears in shaping a better future.


In summary, DJ Jedy's "Happy New Year" reflects on the mixed emotions that come with the transition into a new year. It highlights the desire for peace, unity, and positivity, while also acknowledging the flaws inherent in human nature. The lyrics encourage hope and action, urging individuals to actively contribute to a better world rather than passively accepting the status quo.

No more champagne
The party is over and the excitement has faded


And the fireworks are through
The fireworks display has ended


Here we are, me and you
We are together in this moment


Feeling lost and feeling blue
We are experiencing a sense of confusion and sadness


It's the end of the party
The celebration has come to an end


And the morning seems so grey
The morning feels dull and uninspiring


So unlike yesterday
In contrast to the previous day


Now's the time for us to say...
This is the moment for us to express...


Happy new year!
Wishing for a joyful and prosperous new year

You and I
Together, as individuals


Sometimes I see
Occasionally, I perceive


How the brave new world arrives
The arrival of an optimistic future


And I see how it thrives
And I observe its flourishing


In the ashes of our lives
Emerging from the ruins of our past experiences


Oh, yes, man is a fool
Human beings can be foolish


And he thinks he'll be okay
Yet, they believe everything will be fine


Dragging on, feet of clay
Continuing despite their limitations and flaws


Never knowing he's astray
Unaware of being misguided


Keeps on going anyway...
Persisting, nevertheless...
