So Long, Farewell!

Boy waving goodbye

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 "cuckoo!"
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!

Cuckoo Clock
Regretfully they tell us,
But firmly they compel us,
To say goodbye . . . to you.
Boy waving goodbye
So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, good night;
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight.
Music Music
So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, adieu;
Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu.
MusicMusic
So long, farewell, au revoir, auf wiedersehen;
I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne.
MusicMusic
So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye;
I leave, and heave, a sigh and say goodbye... Goodbye!
MusicMusic
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.
Boy waving goodbye
So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.
Goodbye!
Goodbye!
Goodbye!

Midi: So Long, Farewell
