All together now: So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehen, good night.

[ithinkmyliverhurts]

There's a sad sort of clanging
From the clock in the hall
And the bells in the steeple too,
And up in the nurs'ry an absurd little bird
Is popping out to say "coocoo".

Regretfully they tell us,
But firmly they compel us
To say goodby to you.

So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehen, good night,
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight.
There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall
And the bells in the steeple too.
And up in the nursery an ubsurd little bird
Is popping out to say cook-coo cook-coo, cook-coo
Regretfully they tell us cook-coo
But firmly they compell us cook-coo
To say goodbye cook-coo...
To you...

So long farewell, auf weidersehen good-bye
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight

So long farewell, auf weidersehen adieu
Adieu, adieu, to you and you and you

So long farewell, au revior auf weidersehen
I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne
Yes?

So long farewell, auf weidersehen goodnight
I leave and heave a sigh and say good bye - goodbyyyyyyeeeee!

I'm glad... to go.... I cannot tell a lie
I fleet, I float, I fleetly flee I fly...

The sun... has gone... to bed and so must I...
So long...farewell...auf weidersehen goodbye...
Goodbye...
Goodbye....
Goodbye....

Goodbye...

2. You really should read Skinner's announcement:

Now that it has become apparent that Senator Clinton will leave the presidential race, the primary infighting here on Democratic Underground will end at 12:00 noon ET on Wednesday, June 11. As promised, this gives all of you seven days to prepare yourself for the end of the primary season, and the beginning of the general election:

We understand that not everyone will be prepared to immediately put the primaries behind us. There will be some jerks on the winning side who insist on starting Sound of Music threads. And there will be some sore losers on the other side who will want to keep reciting lyrics from Sound of Music. Once we have a presumptive nominee, those people will have one week to get it out of their systems. We believe that a one-week transitional period is more than fair for those of you who cannot switch gears easily or quickly. After this week-long adjustment period, we're done.

At that point, the moderators and admins will step in and shut down Sound of Music threads. The vast majority of people on this site will be glad to be done with them. Sadly, a very small number of bitter partisans will not be able to let it go, and will likely be removed from this community. Few people will miss them when they are gone.

3. I did read it, which is why I thought the song completely appropriate for DU: P.

You can ban that song, but it will live forever. There is no erasing it. Ever. It is Lucifer's tune. Writing this song is actually what got him tossed out of Heaven. Even a God of love couldn't take this shit.
