Farewell Angelina, the bells of the crown Being stolen by bandits, I must follow the sound Well, the triangles tingle and the trumpets play slow Say, "Farewell, Angelina, the sky is on fire and I must go" There's no need for anger, there's no need for blame There's nothing to prove, everything still the same Just a table standin' empty by the edge of the sea Says, "Farewell, Angelina, the sky is trembling and I must leave" Well, the jack and the queen have forsake the courtyard Fifty-two gypsies now file past the guard In the space where the deuce and the ace once ran wild Farewell, Angelina, the sky is folding, I'll see you in a while See the cross-eyed pirates sitting perched in the sun Shooting tin cans with a sawed-off shotgun And the neighbors, they clap and they cheer with each blast "Oh, farewell Angelina, the sky's changing colors and I must leave fast" King Kong, little elves, on the rooftops they dance Valentino-type tangos while the make-up man's hands Shut the eyes to the dead not to embarrass anyone Says, "Farewell Angelina, the sky is embarrassed and I must be gone" Well, machine guns are roaring and the puppets heave rocks While the fiends nail time bombs to the hands of the clock Call me anything you like, I will never deny it "Farewell Angelina, the sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet"
