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 popping out to say coo-coo (Coo-coo, coo-coo) Coo-coo Regretfully they tell us Coo-coo But firmly they compel us To say goodnight Coo-coo To you So long, farewell Auf Wiedersehen, goodnight I hate to go and leave this pretty sight So long, farewell Auf Wiedersehen, adieu Adieu, adieu To you and you and you So long, farewell Au revoir, Auf Weidersehen I'd like to stay And taste my first champagne Yes? No! So long, farewell Auf Weidersehen, goodbye I leave and heave A sigh and say goodbye 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 Weidersehen, goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye
