Why is Old Lang Syne sung every new years when 1) no one knows the lyrics, and 2) of the fragments they do know, no one knows that they mean?

Uh... I know the words, and what they mean. It's not that complicated. :)

Well, should old aquantiance be forgot, and never brought to mind?

If yes, why? If no, why not?

I'm too strung out on cold medicine to figure out if you're being sarcastic or if you really are asking what my interpretation of the song is. :)

I'm not being sarcastic, silly perhaps. I am interested in your interpretation of the song is. :)
