about

Europop style song from 2017 about Big Ben's closure for lengthy repair work. In early 2020 it's still relevant, with many people campaigning to restore the 'Bong' to mark the UK's exit from the EU.
It's now a case of 'Bong Bong Gone (from the EU)'

lyrics

Bong Bong Gone (Lyrics and Music: Tim Hunter © 2018)

Bong Bong Gone
I know it won’t be long
Bong Bong Gone
Before we hear Big Ben is sounding strong
Bong Bong Gone

The clock has stopped but we’re still gonna rock
Let’s countdown to the sounds, tick tock tick tock tick tock
Let’s send a message to all of our friends
The sounds have gone but it is not the end

Bing Bong Gone
I know it won’t be long
Bong Bong Gone
Before we hear Big Ben is sounding strong
Bong Bong Gone
The sounds of Old Big Ben
Will soon be here again, my friend
Until then we’ll sing
Bong Bong Gone

Everybody wants the freedom chimes to ring
Everybody wants a brand new song to sing
Bong Bong

Send a message right across the world
And bring a smile to all the boys and girls
Once again the sun is gonna shine
Once again we’re gonna have goodtimes

Bing Bong Gone
I know it won’t be long
Bong Bong Gone
Before we hear Big Ben is sounding strong
Bong Bong Gone
The sounds of Old Big Ben
Will soon be here again, my friend
Until then we’ll sing
Bong Bong Gone

(Key Change)

Bing Bong Gone
I know it won’t be long
Bong Bong Gone
Before we hear Big Ben is sounding strong
Bong Bong Gone
The sounds of Old Big Ben
Will soon be here again, my friend
Until then we’ll sing
Bong Bong Gone
