20

Year 20 (XX) was a leap year starting on Monday (link will display the full calendar) of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Marcus Valerius Messalla Barbatus and Cotta (or, less frequently, year 773 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 20 for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.

    They're out of order in war
    They're out of order in love
    They need to feed, they both agree
    The hawk and the dove
    But don't get mad, get even
    And don't let 'em get to you
    I never promised
    It was fair and true
    Before they're through
    They'll have me hunting you
    It's not important
    Good and evil
    They're neck and neck
    Bases loaded
    And there's three on left
    We're in the final quarter
    And it's runnning out
    You'll need a father
    Like there's no time out
    He'll lift you out of the cradle
    Help you into the grave
    But don't be fooled by all the rules
    And don't be the slave
    You take a chill pill, and, baby
    Relax, float downstream
    Life is no rehearsal
    You know what I mean
    And freedom seems
    To be a far-off dream
    It's not important
    Good and evil
    They're neck and neck
    Bases loaded
    And there's three on left
    We're in the final quarter
    And it's runnning out
    You'll need a father
