Always be careful
when you abuse the one you love
The hour or the day no one can tell
But one day "goodbye" will be "farewell"
And you will never see
the one you love again
You will never see
the one you love again

I have been thinking ("What with?")
My final brain-cell
How Time grips you slyly in its spell
And, before you know,
goodbye will be farewell
And you will never see
the one you love again

And the smiling children
tell you that you smell
Well, just look at me
- a savage beast
I've got nothing to sell
And when I die
I want to go to hell
And that's when
goodbye should be farewell

Ta-ta, ta-ta, ta-ta-ta
Ta-ta, ta-ta, ta-ta-ta
Ta-ta, ta-ta, ta-ta-ta
Ta-ta, ta-ta, ta-ta-ta

One day "goodbye"
will be "farewell"
So grab me while
we still have the time
