歌词
[Verse 1]
The answering machine is full
When Arthur calls, it's nothing new
It's the same old thing
The sound of cellphone rings
[Verse 2]
Another problem to ignore
One more chore that's what friends are for
And it's the same old thing
And now his cellphone rings, the orders of the king
[Verse 3]
It always seems to be
"Oh, gotta go, got no time for conversation"
(So long, farewell)
Always missing something
[Verse 4]
It always seems to be
"Oh, so long, there's no room for an explanation"
(So long, farewell)
So long and thanks for nothing
[Verse 5]
Now it's a time bomb in his hands
He understands, chained by its demands
And it's the same old thing
Another cellphone ring, the orders of the king
[Verse 6]
It always seems to be
"Oh, gotta go, got no time for conversation"
(So long, farewell)
Always missing something
[Verse 7]
It always seems to be
"Oh, so long, there's no need for an explanation"
(So long, farewell)
So long and thanks for nothing
[Verse 8]
Now the alarm is set
So don't forget to pull a rabbit from your hat
Because it's what you get
When you expect a bit of magic, it falls flat
[Verse 9]
The moon can offer no relief
His cellphone shakes him from his sleep
[Verse 10]
It always seems to be
"Oh, gotta go, got no time for conversation"
(So long, farewell)
Always missing something
[Verse 11]
It always seems to be
"Oh, so long, there's no need for an explanation"
(So long farewell)
So long and thanks for nothing
[Verse 12]
It always seems to be
"Oh, goodbye, farewell"
(So long, farewell)
Always missing something
[Verse 13]
It always seems to be
"Oh, goodbye, farewell"
(So long, farewell)
So long and thanks for nothing
