Lyrics So Long, Farewell - Laibach

So Long, Farewell

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 out to say «cuckoo»
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 out to say «cuckoo»
So long
Farewell
Auf wiedersehen
Goodnight
I hate to go
And leave this pretty sight
So long, farewell
Auf wiedersehen, goodnight
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
I’d like to stay
And taste my first champagne
So long, farewell
Auf wiedersehen, goodnight
I hate to go
And leave this pretty sight
So long, farewell
Auf wiedersehen
Goodbye
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 out to say «cuckoo»
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
