Cure The Like Cockatoos Lyrics

Like Cockatoos Lyrics

She walked out of her house

 And looked around

 At all the gardens that looked

 Back at her house

 (Like all the faces

 That quiz when you smile...)

 

 And he was standing

 At the corner

 Where the road turned dark

 A part of shiny wet

 Like blood the rain fell

 Black down on the street

 

 And kissed his feet she fell

 Her head an inch away from heaven

 And her face pressed tight

 And all around the night sang out

 Like cockatoos

 

 'There are a thousand things' he said

 'I'll never say those things to you again'

 And turning on his heel

 He left a trace of bubbles

 Bleeding in his stead

 

 And in her head

 A picture of a boy who left her

 Lonely in the rain

 (And all around the night sang out

 like cockatoos)
