[Verse 1]
Got to say hello
It's a lucky day
Kiss the moon goodbye
And be on our way
It's a lucky day 'cause I found you
Gonna build a new world around you
Touch the sun and run
It's a lucky day (Baa daa baa baa, baa daa baa baa baa)
[Chorus 1]
Hello life, goodbye Columbus (Ah, goodbye)
I've got a feelin' that you're gonna hear from us (Goodbye)
You're gonna know that we've taken the world by surprise
Got that look in our eyes
[Verse 2]
It's a lucky day, just for changin'
Leavin' the old world behind
Lucky day, for walkin' a new road
Just to clear your mind
It's a day for startin' a new way
Tellin' the old one goodbye
Lucky day (baa baa baa) for gettin' above it (baa baa baa)
Spread your wings and fly (baa baa daa boo baa baa)
[Chorus 1]
Hello life, goodbye Columbus (Ah, goodbye)
I've got a feelin' that you're gonna hear from us (Goodbye)
You're gonna know that we've taken the world by surprise
Got that look in our eyes
[Chorus 2]
It's a lucky day, goodbye Columbus (Ah, goodbye)
I've got a feelin' that you're gonna hear from us (Goodbye)
You're gonna know that we've taken the world by surprise
Got that look in our eyes
It's a lucky day (dayyyy)
Yeah
(Day day yeah) Goodbye, goodbye Columbus
(Day day day yeah) Goodbye, goodbye Columbus
(Day day day yeah) Goodbye, goodbye Columbus
(Day day day yeah) Goodbye, goodbye Columbus
(Day day day yeah) Goodbye, goodbye Columbus
(Day day day yeah) Goodbye, goodbye Columbus
(Day day day yeah) Goodbye, goodbye Columbus
