I m A Cuckoo

I m glad to see you
I had a funny dream
You were wearing funny shoes
You were going to a dance
You were dressed like a punk but you were 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 were waiting with me
Tell me all about your day
Breaking off is misery
I see a wilderness for you and me
Punctuated by philosophy
And a wondering how things could ve been
I m happy for you
You ve made it hard for me
I counted on your company
You were staying with your friends tonight
I m feeling sorry for myself
I keep taking everything to be to be a sign
I m happy for you
Now I know this hurt is poison
Too sharp to be bled
I m sitting on my empty bed
On my empty bed
At night the fever grows it s pounding pounding
I d rather be in Tokyo
Id rather listen to Thin Lizzy-oh
Watch the Sunday gang in Harajuku
There s something wrong with me, I m a cuckoo
Middle 8:
Scary moment, lovin 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
I know I need my Shepherd here tonight
Breaking off is misery
I see a wilderness for you and me
Punctuated by philosophy
And a wondering how things could ve been
Id like to see you
But really I should stay away
And let you settle down
I ve got no claims to your crown
I was the boss of you
And I loved you
You know I loved you
It s all over now
I was there for you
When you were lonely
I was there when you were sad
I was there when you were bad
Now it s my time of need
Im thinking, do I have to plead to get you by my side?
I d rather be in Tokyo
Id rather listen to Thin Lizzy-oh
Watch the Sunday gang in Harajuku
There s something wrong with me, I m a cuckoo
