joan baez - farewell, angelina (remastered 2025) lyrics

[verse 1]
farewell, angelina, the bells of the crown
are being stolen by bandits; i must follow the sound
the triangle tingles and the trumpets play slow
farewell, angelina, the sky is on fire
and i must go

[verse 2]
there’s no need for anger, there’s no need for blame
there’s nothing to prove everything’s still the same
just a table standing empty by the edge of the sea
means farewеll, angelina, the sky is trembling
and i must lеave

[verse 3]
the jack and the queen have forsake the courtyard
fifty+two gypsies now file past the guards
in the sp+ce where the deuce and the ace once ran wild
farewell, angelina, the sky is falling
i’ll see you in a while

[verse 4]
see the cross+eyed pirates sit perched in the sun
shooting tin cans with a sawed+off shotgun
and the neighbors they clap and they cheer with each blast
farewell, angelina, the sky’s changing color
and i must leave fast
[verse 5]
king kong, little elves on the rooftops they dance
valentino+type tangos while the makeup man’s hands
shut the eyes of the dead, not to embarrass anyone
but farewell, angelina, the sky’s embarrassed
and i must be gone

[verse 5]
the machine guns are roaring, the puppets heave rocks
and fiends nail time bombs to the hands of the clocks
call me any name you like++i will never deny it
but farewell, angelina, the sky is erupting
i must go where it’s quiet
