Cuckoo Lyrics
[Refrain]
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo
What do you do? (Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo)
[Verse]
In April, I open my bill (Cuckoo, cuckoo)
In May, I sing night and day (Cuckoo, cuckoo)
In June, I change my tune (Cuckoo, cuckoo)
In July, far far I fly (Cuckoo, cuckoo)
In August, away I must... (Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo)
