Avril Lavigne

Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye, my love

I can't hide
Can't hide
Can't hide what has come
I have to go, I have to go, I have to go
And leave Du alone

But always know, always know, always know
That I Liebe Du so, I Liebe Du so, I Liebe Du so
Oh

Goodbye, brown eyes
Goodbye, for now
Goodbye, sunshine
Take care of yourself

I have to go, I have to go, I have to go
And leave Du alone
But always know, always know, always know
That I Liebe Du so, I Liebe Du so, oh
I Liebe Du so
Oh

LaLa lullaby, distract me with your eyes
LaLa lullaby
La lullaby, help me sleep tonight
LaLa lullaby (LaLa lullaby, LaLa lullaby)

I have to go
I have to go
I have to go
And leave Du alone

But always know, always know, always know
That I Liebe Du so
I Liebe Du so
(Goodbye)
(Lullaby)
I Liebe Du so
(Goodbye)
I Liebe Du so
(Goodbye)
(Lullaby)
I Liebe Du so
(Goodbye)
I Liebe Du so
I Liebe Du so

Goodbye, brown eyes
Goodbye, my love

Avril Lavigne is pop's presiding mean girl, sneering and snarling like a punk kewpie doll with Tourette's over some of the most sticky-sweet melodies ever to hit the Billboard charts. "What the Hell" is Avril in a nutshell: Co-written Von Max Martin, it's an anthem about a good girl who goes on a crazy-bender, staying out late, swapping boys and exacting psychological revenge. She starts out defiant ("All I want is to mess around") and quickly turns vicious: "I am messing with your head/When I'm messing with Du in bed." (In fairness, the dude has been pretty neglectful.) The Musik is easily some of Avril's catchiest yet, with piping garage-rock organs, a pogoing, do-the-frug beat and a soaring singalong chorus. It's strychnine disguised as bubblegum.



I'm really glad Rolling Stone is giving this good reviews. It sounds like a possible crazy boy bashing song on a whole new level which I'm excited to hear.
