Cuckoo Lyrics - Strawberry Jam - Animal Collective

How I lost my boy 

How I lost my boy 

How I lost my boy 

How I lost my boy 

The king in I died 

He kept floating past my eyes 

And singing his songs 

Life was good now death's all wrong 

Cause you can't feel a thing 

No heart flutters in late spring 

You just drift and pray 

For sun kissed golden days

And I can't hold what's in my hand 

Don't do any good to say this isn't what I planned 

And little kids sliding down the steel park slide 

Little kids can't play with things that have died 

Sometimes all I want is one favorite song 

And two to three minutes don't seem so long 

And where's my mom I want to hold her tight 

She's so far away from crowded nights 

I'm going cuckoo cuckoo 

We're all going cuckoo cuckoo 

He said please stay 

You can see me, don't go away 

I can't see the landscape 

Please describe its amaranthine haze 

It's odd where I am 

There are people you're not like them 

They just look away 

For rain quenched golden days 

Photos 

And my tears quench five feet of lawn 

And I can scream, but I cannot yawn 

And people gonna come and people gonna cry 

He just woke and dreamt and ate and died 

Don't try and erase what you have done 

Put your fingers in a mouth and kiss it if it wants 

And where's my friend, I want to hold him tight 

He's so far away from mountain lights 

I'm going cuckoo cuckoo 

We're all going cuckoo cuckoo
