Say Hello, Wave Goodbye

Standin' at the door of the Pink Flamingo cryin' in the rain, It was a kind of so-so love And I'm gonna make sure it doesn't happen again, You and I had to be the standing joke of the year, You were a runaround, a lost and found and not for me, I feel, Take your hands off me, hey, I don't belong to you, you see, And take a look in my face, for the last time, I never knew you, you never knew me, Say hello goodbye, Say hello and wave goodbye We tried to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt And me in a suit but it just wasn't me, You're used to wearing less, And now your life's a mess, so insecure you see, I put up with all the scenes, This is one scene that's goin' to be played my way Take your hands off me, hey, I don't belong to you, you see, And take a look in my face, for the last time, I never knew you, you never knew me, Say hello goodbye, Say hello and wave goodbye Say hello and wave goodbye Under the deep red light I can see the make-up slidin' down, Well, hey little girl you will always make up So take off that unbecoming frown, As for me, well, I'll find someone Who's not goin' cheap in the sales, A nice little housewife, who'll give me a steady life And not keep going off the rails, Take your hands off me, hey, I don't belong to you, you see, And take a look in my face, for the last time, I never knew you, you never knew me, Say hello goodbye, Say hello and wave goodbye Say hello and wave goodbye Say hello and wave goodbye Wave goodbye Say hello and wave goodbye Say hello, wave goodbye Goodbye Say goodbye Say goodbye We were born before the wind Who are we to understand We were born before the wind Say goodbye Through the rain, hail, sleet, and snow Say goodbye Get on the train, the train, the train Say goodbye Say goodbye Say goodbye Say goodbye In the wind and the rain now darling Say goodbye In the wind and the rain now darling
