So Long, Farewell (Festival Reprise)

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 (Cuckoo)

But firmly they compel us (Cuckoo)

To say goodbye

To you

So long, farewell

Auf Wiederseh'n, goodnight

We hate to go and miss this pretty sight

So long, farewell

Auf Wiederseh'n, adieu

Adieu, adieu

To yieu and yieu and yieu

So long, farewell

Auf Wiederseh'n, goodbye

We flit, we float

We fleetly flee, we fly

So long, farewell

Auf Wiederseh'n, goodbye

The sun has gone

To bed and so must I

Goodbye

Goodbye

Goodbye

Goodbye
