Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Patricia lyrics

We knew it must have been late

(tick-tocktick-tock)

We had no time to wait

(tick-tocktick-tock)

I went to light the fireplace

(tick-tocktick-tock)

I planned it all this wayand

(tick-tocktick-tock)

I snuggled close to her

(tick-tocktick-tock)

Her heart began to purr

(tick-tocktick-tock)

I held my breath insideand then

(tick-tocktick-tock)

I put my arms around her

(tick-tock)

Cuckoocuckoo (go away silly bird)

Cuckoocuckoo (go away silly bird)

Cuckoocuckoo (go away silly bird)

Cuckoocuckoo

I put that birdie away

(tick-tocktick-tock)

His cuckoo was gone to stay

(tick-tocktick-tock)

We both apologized for why

(tick-tocktick-tock)

Forgave that doggone cuckoo

I went back to her side

(tick-tocktick-tock)

I had to swallow my pride

(tick-tocktick-tock)

The fire had almost died away

(tick-tocktick-tock)

We just got situated

(tick-tock)

Cuckoocuckoo (go away silly bird)

Cuckoocuckoo (go away silly bird)

Cuckoocuckoo (go away silly bird)

Cuckoocuckoo

I took that clock apart

(tick-tocktick-tock)

I broke the cuckoo’s heart

(tick-tocktick-tock)

He’ll never bother us again

(tick-tocktick-tock)

We just forgot about him

(tick-tock)

Cuckoocuckoo (go away silly bird)

Cuckoocuckoo (go away silly bird)

Cuckoocuckoo (go away silly bird)

Cuckoocuckoo
