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
Regretfully they tell us
But firmly they compel us
To say goodbye 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 you and you and you
So long farewell
Au revoir 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
