Lyrics & Translation

[English]

- Hey guys, it's new years!

You know what that means.

- New years resolutions.

And I know exactly what you're thinking,

'cause I'm the same way.

Every year it's the same thing,

I say I'm going to do something,

I do it for a little while and then I get lazy

and I give up.

That's why I like to do things differently.

I found a website the generates

random New Years resolutions, so I generated

a whole bunch of them and my goal is to complete

as many of them as possible in this video.

You know, before I get a chance to get lazy.

See, smart.

So here we go!

(classical music)

(bell chime)

(radio chatter)

- [Voiceover] Okay item 26, move seat to the rear capsule.

- One, two, whoop no, (bleep) this.

(classical music)

(bell chime)

(Power Rangers theme song)

I did it!

I turned off the TV!

I can start the new year without distractions.

(goofy holiday music)

Yep, no distractions.

(classical music)

(bell chime)

(quiet, mellow music)

(laughs) Hey, Poco.

- Yo

- Come check this out.

- Okay.

Whoa dude!

- I know, right?

- That is remarkable.

- I'll say.

How am I supposed to flush this?

- Hmm.

I'll get the stick.

(classical music)

(bell chime)

- You know, the world would be a more peaceful place

if people were just more tolerant of others.

- Yeah, I agree.

- Let's lead by example.

I'm ok with gay marriage.

- I'm ok with anybody having whatever

religious beliefs they want.

- I'm not going to judge anyone by the way they look.

- I'm going to keep an open mind

to everybody's political beliefs.

- I'm going to be more understand to other people's choices.

- What a great way to start off the year.

Oh, hey, I forgot to tell you.

I just got the new blackberry.

So much better than the Iphone.

- Be gone from my house!

(classical music)

(bell chime)

- Look, all I'm saying is, Mr. Dress-Up

taught me way more than both Sesame Street

and Reading Rainbow combined.

- You are so full of it.

Name one thing Mr. Dress-Up taught you.

- Oh I don't know.

Maybe how to make a pop-up book out of cardboard.

- Enough. Let's just settle this.

Matt.

- Yes?

- Which is better, Sesame Street or Mr. Dress-Up?

Okay Matt, you can do this.

Just breathe, you have to make a decision.

It's not that difficult.

Okay, here we go.

Sesame Street.

- Matt? Are you still here?

(classical music)

(bell chime)

(8-bit music)

- [Voiceover] Like a boss!

(classical music)

(bell chime)

(upbeat video game music)

- That look real at all? (laughs)

- [Voiceover] Uh no.

- Aw man.

- [Voiceover] Good try, though.

- Yeah.

(classical music)

(bell chime)

- This one provides a nice little segue.

But all joking aside, 2012 was an incredible year.

We saw alot of changes in the world

and we all grew a little, got a little smarter, wiser

and the world didn't end so that's a plus!

I am very grateful for the friends that I made in 2012,

many of which are regularly in my videos

and often help me produce them.

So thank you so much to you guys.

And a very special thank you, as usual,

to all my subscribers.

You guys keep watching me week after week

and it means a great deal to me

and I really want to thank you all.

My promise to you for 2013 is to continue making videos

as long as you keep watching them.

Deal?

Deal.

2013 is going to be a very exciting year for me

personally, because not only am I going to be doing

my Youtube videos but I'm actually starting my acting career

for the first time in my life,

so I'm very excited to see where that goes.

If you guys want to wish me a happy New Year,

you can add me to Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, Instagram,

pretty much everything.

The links are in the description.

And I wish all of you a Happy New Year,

so here's to a great year.

See you guys.

(trumpet fanfare)

This actually hurts. (laughs)

(groans)

I feel like this is an Instagram opportunity.

I'm gonna take an Instagram photo.

There we go.

Alright, that turned out well.

Meh mem.
