Five to Twelve ("Песенка про 5 минут" из кинофильма "Карнавальная ночь")
care to listen to a song
five minutes long
kind of song that anyone
could sing along
for the new year to be happy
sing with me and make it happen
simple song five minutes long
five to twelve five to twelve
everyone's ready to count down
five to twelve five to twelve
if you're angry - time to calm down
only five only five
doesn't sound too much at all but
in five minutes your whole life
could completely change it's orbit
five to twelve five to twelve
everyone's ready to count down
if you're angry - time to calm down
its eleven fifty-five
the time won't stay
and the new year is
already on its way
right in time its gonna be here
soon we will say "happy new year!"
its eleven fifty five!
new years not gonna wait
its behind your door already
you're five minutes away
from a wonder, so get ready
dear friend, don't be shy
if you have something to say
say it now - only five
no more minutes to delay
dear friend, don't be shy
if you have something to say
do not wait until next year
i want everyone to hear that song tonight
smiling faces, sparkling glasses, shining lights
but it seems while we were singing
time has come, the bells are ringing
the new year begins at last
happy new year to you
happy new year, everybody
time to learn something new
travel somewhere, meet somebody
leave the old year behind
and forget the old offences
look ahead smiling wide
and you'll never miss your chances,
happy new year to you
happy new year, everyone
happy new year, everybody
