So Long Farewell

So Long Farewell - Cast Children

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 cook-coo cook-coo cook-coo

Regretfully they tell us

But firmly they compel us

To say goodbye

To you

So long farewell auch wiedersehen good night

I hate to go and leave this pretty sight

So long farewell auch wiedersehen adieu

Adieu adieu to you and you and you

So long farewell au revoir auch wiedersehen

I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne

So long farewell auch 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 auch wiedersehen goodbye

Goodbye goodbye goodbye

Goodbye
