Bye goodbye

[OK, start now.]

Mother, you had me but I never had you
Ooh I wanted you, you didn't want me
So I, I just got to tell you
Goodbye goodbye

Father, you left me but I never left you
Ooh I needed you, you didn't need me, oh no
So I just got to tell you
Goodbye goodbye

Children, don't do what I have done
Oh I couldn't walk and I tried to run
So I, I just got to tell you
Goodbye goodbye

Mama don't go
Daddy come home
Mama don't go
Daddy come home

[Yeah, that's it. Well that was more like it.]
