Gary Usher - Cuckoo Clock lyrics

[Verse 1] We knew it must have been late (Tick-tock, tick-tock) We had no time to wait (Tick-tock, tick-tock) I went to light the fireplace (Tick-tock, tick-tock) I planned it all this way, and (Tick-tock, tick-tock) I snuggled close to her (Tick-tock, tick-tock) Her heart began to purr (Tick-tock, tick-tock) I held my breath inside, and then (Tick-tock, tick-tock) I put my arms around her (Tick-tock) [Chorus] Cuckoo, cuckoo (go away silly bird)[x3] Cuckoo, cuckoo [Verse 2] I put that birdie away (Tick-tock, tick-tock) His cuckoo was gone to stay (Tick-tock, tick-tock) We both apologized for why (Tick-tock, tick-tock) Forgave that doggone cuckoo I went back to her side (Tick-tock, tick-tock) I had to swallow my pride (Tick-tock, tick-tock) The fire had almost died away (Tick-tock, tick-tock) We just got situated (Tick-tock) [Chorus] [Verse 3] I took that clock apart (Tick-tock, tick-tock) I broke the cuckoo's heart (Tick-tock, tick-tock) He'll never bother us again (Tick-tock, tick-tock) We just forgot about him (Tick-tock) [Chorus]
