Now is the time to say goodbye.
My how fast the time did fly.

Now it is time to say, "Goodbye".
Grab your things and off you fly!

ANOTHER DAY

Goodbye, goodbye,"
Until another day.

Worked and played, worked and played.
All day long we worked and played,
Now our day is done.
Wave goodbye, to all your friends,
All your friends, all your friends,
Wave goodbye, to all your friends.
Until we meet again.
