Farewell today 
Travel on now 
Be on your way 
Go safely there 
And never worry  never care 
Beyond this day 
Farewell tonight 
To all joy and to all the life 
Go on  go peacefully 
We can't keep your majesty 
Be on your way 
Make way for the last king of May 
And make a cardboard crown for him 
And make your voices one 
Praise the crazy mother's son  who loved his life 
Farewell today 
Travel on now 
Be on your way 
Can't bear the very thought that we 
That we could keep your majesty 
Be on your way 
Make way for the last king of May 
And make a hole in the cloud for him 
Raise your voices up 
Drink your loving cup 
To his long life 
To his long life 
Make way for the last king of May 
Make a hole in the sky for him 
And raise your voices up 
Lift your loving cup 
To his long life 
His long life 
And raise your voices up 
Lift you loving cup 
To his long life 
To his long life 
His long life 
His long life
