You stand like a rock, on top of the mountain
Run like a river, fall like a fountain
The grass still is growing, the wind still is blowing, about you


Reels like a strain, drinks like a scholar
Drown in this town, you can feel for one dollar

Since when were you bitten, where were you smitten

Cuckoo

Cuckoo
Cuckoo
Cuckoo


Looks like a date, but seems like your brother
Seems like your father, your sister, your mother

Threw out in chains, wildhood and childhood, cuckoo

Drinks like a rogue, looks like no other

Looks like a dream, one you’ll discover
Seems like its bitten, whence were you smitten, cuckoo


Cuckoo
Cuckoo
Cuckoo

Cuckoo

Looks like a saint, drinks like a scholar

Dreams in this town you can buy for one dollar
Whence were you smitten, where were you bitten, cuckoo


Wrench like a chain(?), looks like no other
Your father, your mother, your sister, your brother
Have all since long gone, all since long gone


Cuckoo
Cuckoo

Cuckoo
Cuckoo


Stand like a rock
You stand like a rock
Cuckoo
