We knew it must have been late
(Tick-tock
(Tick-tock)
We had no time to wait
(Tick-tock
(Tick-tock)

I went to light the fireplace
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
I planned it all this way and
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)

I snuggled close to her
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
Her heart began to purr
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)

I held my breath inside and then
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
I put my arms around her
(Tick-tock)

Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)
Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)
Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)
Cockoo, cockoo

I put that birdie away
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
His cockoo was gone to stay
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)

We both apologized for why
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
Forgave that dog gone cockoo

(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
I had to swallow my pride
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)

The fire had almost died away
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
We just got situated
(Tick-tock)

Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)
Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)
Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)
Cockoo, cockoo

I took that clock apart
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
I broke the cockoo's heart
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)

He'll never bother us again
(Tick-tock)
(Tick-tock)
We just forgot about him
(Tick-tock)

Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)
Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)
Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)

Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)
Cockoo, cockoo
(Go away silly bird)

We knew it must have been late
