Cass McCombs - Cuckoo lyrics
[Cass McCombs - Cuckoo lyrics]
Dawn in Albany statesmen are still asleep
The first noise heard through
The dew: "cuckoo!"
A rattle follows, the coroner's office glows
This is my portrait of you, Cuckoo
Cuckoo is your given name
Christened in the solitude of fame
Ah! Friends as such! Whose
Love is without touch
All four horsemen are you, Cuckoo, Cuckoo
Cuckoo, like Brughel's Miser in the frame
Quite literally, you're insane
A cop-out so flippantly talked about
Stand up
Here comes your cue: "cuckoo! cuckoo!"
The first noise heard through
The dew: "cuckoo!"
A rattle follows, the coroner's office glows
This is my portrait of you, Cuckoo
Cuckoo is your given name
Christened in the solitude of fame
Ah! Friends as such! Whose
Love is without touch
All four horsemen are you, Cuckoo, Cuckoo
Cuckoo, like Brughel's Miser in the frame
Quite literally, you're insane
A cop-out so flippantly talked about
Stand up
Here comes your cue: "cuckoo! cuckoo!"
