Jarvis Cocker - Cuckoo Song lyrics

It may sound funny
But when your love is nearly new
You say, "I'll try, " rather than, "I do"
I'll try to get there in the end
The cuckoo is a pretty bird
It sings the sweetest song I've ever heard
It reminds me how you stole into
My heart and threw everything away
It's outrageous, so shoddy
The way you're making love
To someone else's body
And I know we said we won't
But, you can call me when you want
And you know I'll always bear
Thought you'd like to know I still
Think you are the most
But, you left me living here
Married to a ghost
It gets so cold at nighttime
So cold at nighttime
Sometimes dreams come true
One night when the moon is blue
I may come to you
With a love that's nearly new oh, my love
I tried to love you
But, I guess I'm out of practice
And practising is strictly for the birds
Yes, the cuckoo is a pretty bird
It sings the sweetest song I've ever heard
And it reminds me how you
Stole into my heart
Then threw everything away then you stay
It's outrageous, it's disgraceful
The way that you and I could
End up being so tasteful
And my flesh can go and crawl
Halfway up the bathroom wall
And you, you know I'm always there
I thought you'd like to know I
Still think you are the most
But, you left me living here
Forever married to a ghost
Oh, it gets so cold at nighttime
I never knew it got so cold at nighttime
But sometimes dreams come true
So one night when the moon is blue
Then I may come to you
With a love that's nearly new
