There's a sad sort of clanging
From the clork 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)

Regretfully they tell us (coo-coo Coo-coo)
But firmly the compel us To say "goodbye"
(Coo-coo) 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 voir auf Wiedersehen
I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne

So long farewell Auf Wiedersehen 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 Wiedersehen goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye -
