Lyrics Goodbye (Astrid, Goodbye) - Live - Cold Chisel

One, two, three, four

Open up the door, Astrid, 'cause I'm a-coming down the stairs
And I ain't gonna listen to no more pissin' around
I've had seven long years of give a little, take a little, stack a little money away
And you better believe it, I'm gonna take this love to town

Turn on the tears, Astrid, and don't forget to let the neighbours see
What a low-down deal you got when you married me
And you can drown your days in Valium and brandy, talkin' to the cat and the dog
And you can shove your cheap French vogue society

Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, now babe, I won't be comin' back for long
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, now babe, I won't be comin' back for long
I'm not comin' home, take it Donald, take it

David, come on

Open up the door, Astrid, and don't you try to get in my way
Well, I'm a-heading from a long, long night to a better day
And don't you bother offering to drive me to the station, you'll only drive me 'round the bend
Well, we're comin' to the end, there ain't nothin' left to say
Except this, ma

Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, now babe, I won't be comin' back for long
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, now babe, I won't be comin' back for long
Take it Jimmy, come on

Take it away, Don, shh

Now, listen
Without, without screaming for a start
Without breaking down into tears
I'd like to thank ya's all for comin'
Now, dead set, fuck youse guys, we've had a good time with you, ya know
Over all these years we've fucked you about, ya know, it's been great

Goodbye (goodbye), goodbye (goodbye)
Goodbye (goodbye), goodbye (goodbye)
Goodbye (goodbye), goodbye (goodbye)
Goodbye, shh
