Hue and Cry
Goodbye to Me
[Intro]
'Scuse me, could I have a cream bagel and cheese, please?
I mean, a bagel with cream and cheese, please
You know what I mean, don't you?
Ugh, New York, huh?

[Verse 1]
Licking up the chicken
Chewing on the gravy
Cursing all the cheapskates who designed this seat
Everything goes sideways
Streetlight fills my view
I grab a little tighter and I smell defeat

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm dancing like a mirror boy
Simper and I whimper
A pretty little puppet
And the strings are in my hand

[Chorus]
Around the world in 45
I'll do the globe in 33
I'll meet you on the 625
You can say goodbye to me
Well, goodbye
Well, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Get on down
[Verse 2]
Threw myself around a hundred-story building
And I was as thin as I ever could be
The beggar's got no money
Beggar's got no honey
The beggar is no bad man
The beggar is not me

[Pre-Chorus]
Moving like a soldier
Speeding like a Harley
I'm an empty vessel
Making a stupid old noise

[Chorus]
Around the world in 45
I'll do the globe in 33
I'll meet you on the 625
You can say goodbye to me
Around the world in 45
I'll do the globe in 33
I'll meet you on the 625
You can say goodbye to me
You can say goodbye to me
You can say goodbye to me, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
Threw myself around a hundred-story building
And I was as thin as I ever could be
The beggar's got no money
Beggar's got no honey
The beggar is no bad man
The beggar is not me

[Pre-Chorus]
Moving like a soldier (You can say goodbye to me)
Speeding like a Harley
I'm an empty vessel
Making a stupid pop noise

[Chorus]
Around the world in 45 (You can say goodbye to me)
I'll do the globe in 33
Meet you on the 625
You can say goodbye to me
Around the world in 45 (You can say goodbye to me)
I'll do the globe in 33
I'll meet you on the 625
You can say goodbye to me, yeah
(You can say goodbye to me)
You can say goodbye to me
You can say goodbye to me (You can say goodbye to me)
Yeah, yeah
[Outro]
(You can say goodbye to me, bye to me)
You can say goodbye, there's no need to cry
(You can say goodbye to me)
You can say goodbye, there'd no need to cry
You can say goodbye, you can say goodbye
(You can say goodbye to me)
You can say goodbye, there's no need to cry, baby
Yeah
