[Refrain: Marina and the Diamonds]
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
[Verse 1: Marina and the Diamonds]
Ten silver spoons coming after me
One life with one dream on repeat
I'll escape if I try hard enough
Till King of the Jungle calls my bluff
[Pre-Chorus 1: Marina and the Diamonds]
Oh, lord (oh, lord)
I have been told (I have been told)
That I must take the unforsaken road (forsaken road)
[Chorus: Marina and the Diamonds]
There's a fork in the road, I'll do as I am told
And I don't know (don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know)
Who, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, I want to be
[Refrain: Marina and the Diamonds]
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
[Verse 2: Marina and the Diamonds]
You say Y-E-S to everything
Will that guarantee you a win?
Do you think you will be good enough
To love others and to be loved?
[Pre-Chorus 2: Marina and the Diamonds]
Oh, lord (oh, lord)
Now I can see (now I can see)
The cutlery will keep on chasing me (forsaken road)
[Chorus: Marina and the Diamonds]
There's a fork in the road, I'll do as I am told
And I don't know (don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know)
Who, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, I want to be
[Bridge: Marina and the Diamonds]
We are the spoons, metally mean
We scooped our way into your dreams
To knock the knives out bloody cold
And lead you down the unforsaken road (forsaken road)
[Chorus: Marina and the Diamonds]
There's a fork in the road, I'll do as I am told
And I don't know (don't know, don't know, don't know, don't know)
Who, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, I want to be
Cuckoo!
