Tico Tico

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 tête-à-tête 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, sentimentally 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

I've got a date at eight

Oh, to celebrate with my friend tico, tico tock

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, sentimentally at the start"

Oh, oh, I hear my little tico tico calling to me

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

Tico tico, tico, tico, tico, tico, tok

Tico tok
