Lyrics to Farewell Angelina
Farewell Angelina Video:
Farewell Angelina, the bells of the crownAre being stolen by bandits, I must follow the soundThe triangle tingles and the trumpets play slowFarewell AngelinaThe sky is on fire and I must goThere's no need for anger, there's no need for blameThere's nothing to prove, ev'rything's still the sameJust a table standing empty by the edge of the seaMeans farewell AngelinaThe sky is trembling and I must leaveThe jack and queen have forsaked the courtyardFifty-two gypsies now file past the guardsIn the space where the deuce and the ace once ran wildFarewell AngelinaThe sky is falling, I'll see you in a whileSee the cross-eyed pirates sitting perched in the sunShooting tin cans with a sawed-off shotgunAnd the neighbors they clap and they cheer with each blastFarewell AngelinaThe sky's changing color and I must leave fastKing Kong, little elves on the rooftoop they danceValentino-type tangos while the make-up man's handsShut the eyes of the dead not to embarrass anyoneBut farewell AngelinaThe sky is embarrassed and I must be goneThe machine guns are roaring and the puppets heave rocksAnd fiends nail time bombs to the hands of the clocksCall me any name you like, I will never deny itBut farewell AngelinaThe sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet
