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)

Cuckoo, Cuckoo (go Away Silly Bird)
Cuckoo, Cuckoo (go Away Silly Bird)
Cuckoo, Cuckoo (go Away Silly Bird)
Cuckoo, Cuckoo

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)

Cuckoo, Cuckoo (go Away Silly Bird)
Cuckoo, Cuckoo (go Away Silly Bird)
Cuckoo, Cuckoo (go Away Silly Bird)
Cuckoo, Cuckoo

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)

Cuckoo, Cuckoo (go Away Silly Bird)
Cuckoo, Cuckoo (go Away Silly Bird)
Cuckoo, Cuckoo (go Away Silly Bird)
Cuckoo, Cuckoo
