I'm a Cuckoo

I'm glad to see you, I had a funny dream

And you were wearing funny shoes

You were going to a dance

You were dressed like a punk

But you are too young to remember

Glad to see you, I'm outside the house

I'm not thinking right today

I've got no energy

I'm glad that you are waiting with me

Tell me all about your day

Breaking off is misery

I see a wilderness for you and me

Punctuated by philosophy

I'm wondering how things could've been

I'm happy for you, you've made it hard for me

I counted on your company

You are staying with your friends tonight

I'm feeling sorry for myself

I keep taking everything to be a sign

I'm happy for you, but now I know this hurt is poison

Too sharp to be bled

I'm sitting on my empty bed

I'm on my empty bed at night

The fever grows, it's pounding, pounding

I'd rather be in Tokyo

I'd rather listen to Thin Lizzy, oh

And watch the Sunday gang in Harajuku

There's something wrong with me, I'm a cuckoo

Scary moment, loving every moment

I was high from playing shows

We lost a singer to her clothes

My trouble raised its ugly head

I was revealed, and I was home in bed, I was a kid again

Jesus told me, "Go after every coin

Like it was the last in the world

And protect the wayward child"

But I'm a little lost sheep, I need my Bo Peep

You know I need My Shepherd here tonight

Breaking off is misery

I see a wilderness for you and me

Punctuated by philosophy

I'm wondering how things could've been

I'd like to see you, but really I should stay away

And let you settle down (Let you settle down)

I've got no claims to your crown (Let you settle down)

I was the boss of you, and I loved you, you know I loved you

It's all over now

And I was there for you when you were lonely

I was there when you were bad (There when you were bad)

I was there when you were sad (There when you were sad)

Now it's my time of need, I'm thinking

Do I have to plead to get you by my side?

I'd rather be in Tokyo

I'd rather listen to Thin Lizzy, oh

And watch the Sunday gang in Harajuku

There's something wrong with me, I'm a cuckoo
