Cukoo song

Pulp


Might sound funny 
But when your heart is nearly new 
You say "I'll try" rather than "I do" 
Yeah, "I'll try and get there in the end" 

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 
And then throw everything away 
Away 

And it's tragic 
It's disgraceful 
The way that you and me could turn out being so tasteful 
And I know we said we won't 
But you can call me if you want 
And you know I'm always there 

I thought you'd like to know 
I still think you are the most 
Though you left me living here 
Still married to a ghost 
Oh, it gets so cold at night-time 
Never knew it got so cold at night-time 
But sometimes dreams come true 
One night when the moon is blue 
Then I may come to you 
With a love that's nearly new 

Oh my love 
Well I tried to love you 
But I guess I'm out of practice 
And practising is strictly for the birds 

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 
And then threw everything away 
And you stay 

And it's tragic 
Yeah, it's so shoddy 
The way you're making love to someone else's body 
Oh, but my flesh can go and crawl 
halfway up the bedroom wall 
And you know I'm always there 

I thought you'd like to know 
I still think you are the most 
Though you left me living here 
Forever married to a ghost 
Oh, it gets so cold at night-time 
Never knew it got so cold at night-time 
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
