So long to my dog Snickers
Who ate Christmas tinsel
So long to Mr. Whiskers
Who jumped out of a window
And to the family of gerbils
Who chewed out of the cage
And the little brown rabbit
I ran over by mistake
So long! So long!
I'll see you on the other side
So long! So long!
I'll see you on the other side
So long to the goldfish
Who ate each other's tails
So long to the chipmunk
Trapped under the stairs
So long to the rosebush
I never watered
And to whatever was inside
That hole that I raked over
So long! So long!
I'll see you on the other side
So long! So long!
I'll see you on the other side
So long to the seagull
I hit with a rock
So long to the squirrel
I accidentally shot
And to everything I burned
With a magnifying glass
That long lonely summer
When I was only ten
So long! So long!
I'll see you on the other side
So long! So long!
I'll see you on the other side
