OH, TICO TICO, TICK!
OH, TICO TICO, TOCK!
THIS TICO TICO, HE’S THE CUCKOO IN MY CLOCK
AND WHEN HE SAYS «CUCKOO,»
HE MEANS IT’S TIME TO WOO
IT’S TICO TIME FOR ALL THE LOVERS ON THE BLOCK
I’VE GOT A HEAVY DATE
A TETE A TETE AT EIGHT
SO SPEAK, OH, TICO, TELL ME IF IT’S GETTING LATE?
IF I’M ON TIME, CUCKOO
BUT, IF I’M LATE, WOO-WOO!
THE ONE MY HEART IS GONE TO MAY NOT WANT TO WAIT!
FOR JUST A BIRDIE, AND A BIRDIE WHO GOES
NOWHERE
HE KNOWS OF EVERY LOVER’S LANE AND HOW TO GO
THERE;
FOR IN AFFAIRS OF THE HEART
MY TICO’S TERRIBLY SMART
HE TELLS ME: «GENTLY, SENTIMENT’LY AT THE
START!»
OH, OH, I HEAR MY LITTLE TICO TICO CALLING
BECAUSE THE TIME IS RIGHT AND SHADES OF NIGHT
ARE FALLING
I LOVE THAT NOT-SO-CUCKOO CUCKOO IN THE CLOCK
TICO TICO TICO TICO TICO TOCK!!!
