Say Hello, Wave Goodbye

Soft Cell

Standing in the door of the Pink Flamingo

Crying in the rain

It was a kind of so-so love

And I'm gonna make sure it never

Happens again

You and I

It had to be the

Standing joke of the year

You were a sleep around

A lost and found

And not for me I fear



Well our love



I tried to make it work

You in cocktail skirt

And me in a suit

Well it just wasn't me

You're used to wearing less

And now you're lifes a mess

So insecure you see

I put up with all the scenes

But this is one scene

Thats going to be played my way



Chorus

Take your hands of me

I don't belong to you, you see

Take a look at my face

For the last time

I never knew you, you never knew me

Say hello, goodbye



Say hello, wave goodbye



Under the deep red light

I can see the make up

Sliding down

Hey little girl, you will always make up

So take off that unbecoming frown

What about me, well I'll find someone

Thats not going cheap in the sales

A nice litle housewife

Who'll give me a steady life

And won't keep going of the rails



Repeat chorus



Say hello then wave goodbye

Say hello wave goodbye

Say hello then wave goodbye

Say goodbye

Goodbye
