[Verse 1]
I wanna change the channel
But I keep losing my remote
It's like my favorite show's on
I can predict your every joke
My friends think I am lucky
But I bet that you don't know
That I don't really think so
[Pre-Chorus]
Chick flicks and breadsticks
No, we don't have to say a thing
I like when you're holding my hand
But I don't feel nothing
And do I really love you?
I should really love you
[Chorus]
I'm like a bird in a cage
And I'm going, "Cuckoo, cuckoo"
I know that I can escape
But I don't wanna hurt you, hurt you
Do I really love you?
Do I really love you?
I'm like a bird in a cage
And I'm going, "Cuckoo, cuckoo"
I know that I can escape
But I don't wanna hurt you, hurt you
Do I really love you?
And do I really love you?
[Verse 2]
I think about the break up
Sometimes I wanna pack my shit and run
It's like a trip to Vegas
Will I regret it when it's done?
It's like my heart is burning
So I overdose on Tums
Maybe something's wrong with me
Maybe something's wrong with me
Maybe something's wrong with me
Maybe something's wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
Chick flicks and breadsticks
No, we don't have to say a thing
I like when you're holding my hand
But I don't feel nothing
And do I really love you?
I should really love you
[Chorus]
I'm like a bird in a cage
And I'm going, "Cuckoo, cuckoo"
I know that I can escape
But I don't wanna hurt you, hurt you
Do I really love you?
Do I really love you?
I'm like a bird in a cage
And I'm going, "Cuckoo, cuckoo"
I know that I can escape
But I don't wanna hurt you, hurt you
Do I really love you?
And do I really love you?

This song was written about the feeling of being stuck in a loop, that you don’t know if you created yourself or someone else built for you. We decided to recreate this feeling with a music box. We worked over three months to build a custom made music box, which was very tricky because it’s an instr...
