Bye, Bye, Bye

歌詞

The boy feels most peculiar On his last day spent at school He still can't find a place to sit Is accused of breaking rules. The young man is on the doorstep While his father bars the way To tell him he's unwanted When he'd never asked to stay On the eve before his marriage He isn't very sure But surrounded by such ceremony Makes him feel secure. When history repeats itself There's nothing left to learn For a moment you will see it - the point of no return The place at which you learn - there's no turning back. Bye, bye, bye. They were dancing on the boat With garlands in their hair Like lambs to the slaughter They didn't seem to care. They were partying on deck When the chairs began to slide I jumped over the rails Before the laughter died. Sitting in a lifeboat Bobbing off to sea. Watching all those crazy folks Go down without me. Bye, bye, bye. I really must be going It's more trouble than it's worth. It leads to thinking far too much And feeling even worse. Bye, bye, bye.
