So Long Farewell

There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall

And the bells in the steeple too

And up in the nursery an absurd little bird

Is poping out to say cuckoo

(Cuckoo, cuckoo)

Regretfully they tell us

(Cuckoo, cuckoo)

But firmly they compel us

(Cuckoo, cuckoo)

To say goodbye

(Cuckoo, cuckoo)

To you

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night

I hate to go and leave this pretty sight

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu

Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu

So long, farewell, au revoir, auf wiedersehen

I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne

Yes?

No!

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good bye

I leave and heave a sigh and say good bye

Goodbye

I'm glad to go, I cannot tell a lie

I flit, I float, I fleetly flee, I fly

The sun has gone to bed and so must I

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good bye

Good bye, good bye, good bye

Goodbye
