Song lyrics

Takes a second to say goodbye, say goodbye, oh, oh oh

Takes a second to say goodbye, say goodbye

Oh, oh, oh, say bye-bye

Where you going to now?

Lightning flashes across the sky

East to West, do or die

Like a thief in the night, see the world by candlelight

Fall, rise and

Fall, rise and


In an apartment on Times Square

You can assemble them anywhere

Held to ransom, hell to pay

A revolution every day

U.S.S.R., G.D.R., London, New York, Peking

It's the puppets, it's the puppets pull the strings, yeah

Fall, rise and

Fall, rise and


Say goodbye, say goodbye

Say goodbye, say goodbye

Say goodbye


It takes a second to say goodbye

Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh

Push the button and pull the plug

Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh

Fall, missing is the rise and fall

Fall, I will rise and fall


And they're doing the atomic bomb

Do they know where the dance comes from?

Yes, they're doing the atomic bomb

They want you to sing along


Say goodbye, say goodbye

Say goodbye, say goodbye
