You say yes, I say no,
You say stop and I 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, 
I don’t know why you say goodbye and I say hello, 
Hello, hello, 
I don’t know why you say goodbye, 
I say hello.

(Why, why, why, why, why, why
Do you say good bye
Goodbye, bye, bye, bye, bye)

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.

You say yes, I say no,
You say stop and I say go go go,
Oh, 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 and I say hello,
Hello, hello,
I don’t know why you say goodbye,
I say hello.
Hello.

Hela, heba helloa…
