Lyrics The Magnetic Fields

The Magnetic Fields

Absolutely Cuckoo

Don't fall in love with me yet

We only recently met

True, I'm in love with you, but

You might decide I'm a nut

Give me a week or two to

Go absolutely cuckoo

Then when you see your error

Then you can flee in terror

Like everybody else does

I only tell you this 'cause

I'm easy to get rid of

But not if you fall in love

Know now that I'm on the make

And if you make a mistake

My heart will certainly break

I'll have to jump in a lake

And all my friends will blame you

There's no telling what they'll do

It's only fair to tell you

I'm absolutely cuckoo

Don't fall in love with me yet

We only recently met

True, I'm in love with you, but

You might decide I'm a nut

Give me a week or two to

Go absolutely cuckoo

Then when you see your error

Then you can flee in terror

Like everybody else does

I only tell you this 'cause

I'm easy to get rid of

But not if you fall in love

Know now that I'm on the make

And if you make a mistake

My heart will certainly break

I'll have to jump in a lake

And all my friends will blame you

There's no telling what they'll do

It's only fair to tell you

I'm absolutely cuckoo

It's only fair to tell you

I'm absolutely cuckoo
