So Long, Farewell

[THE CHILDREN:] There's a sad sort of clanking From the clock in the hall And the bells in the steeple too And up in the nursery an absurd little bird Is popping up to say cukoo! Cukoo! Cukoo! Regretfully they tell us But firmly they compel us To say goodbye to you So long Farewell Aufwiedersehn Goodnight I hate to go and leave this pretty sight So long Farewell Aufwiedersehn Adeiu Adeiu Adeiu To yieu and yieu and yieu So long Farewell Au 'voire Aufwiedersehn I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne So long Farewell Aufwiedersehn 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 Aufwiedersehn Goodbye[x5]
