You say yes
I say no
You say stop
And I'll say go, go, go
Oh no

You say goodbye and I say hello
Hello, hello
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello
Hello, hello
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello

I say high
You say low
You say why and I say I don't know
Oh no

You say goodbye and I say hello
Hello, hello (goodbye)
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello (goodbye)
Hello, hello
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello (goodbye)

Why, why, why, why, why, why
Why do you say goodbye, goodbye?
Oh no

You say goodbye
And I say hello
Hello, hello (hello, goodbye)
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello (hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye)
Hello, hello (hello, goodbye)
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello

You say yes (I say yes)
I say no (but I may mean no)

You say stop (I can stay)
And I'll say go, go, go ('til it's time to go)
Oh no

You say goodbye and I say hello (hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye)
Hello, hello (hello, goodbye)
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello (hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye)
Hello, hello (hello)
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello (hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye)
Hello, hello
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello (oh, oh, oh)

Hello (oh, oh)

Hello

Oh

Hey-la! Hey, hey, hey-lo-la
Hey-la! Hey, hey, hey-lo-la (hey, hey, hey-lo-la)
Hey-la! Hey, hey, hey-lo-la (hey-lo-laaaa)
Hey-la! Hey, hey, hey-lo-la (hey-la) (hey, hey, yeah)

Hey-la! Hey, hey, hey-lo-la (I say hello, hello, hello!)
(I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello) (say hello)
Hey-la! Hey, hey, hey-lo-la
(Hello, hello! I don't know why you say goodbye)
Hey-la! Hey, hey, hey-lo-la

I say hello (oh, oh)

Hello (oh, oh)
Hello-o-o
