Danny B walks in, looking like he knows the bones in your closet
Gonna take whatever you got, boy you done lost it
He’s got one good line for every woman here to Boston
Like he don’t want to steal your girl and he’s real sorry
Cuckoo bird laid an egg in our nest
And when it hatched she fed it and then starved the rest
So there goes Darling G, ring turned in like royalty
Like she don’t owe me nothing no how, least of all loyalty
Danny gonna take her away from all this pointless toiling
Like she could will the wheel to stop squeaking instead of oiling it
Cuckoo bird laid an egg in our nest
And when it hatched she fed it and then starved the rest
She says I’m the reason that we’re in this mess
When she’s the one who flew away and that’s my fault I guess
One fine day she calls me, sorry she didn’t believe me
Trying to make up for all the ways that she deceived me
Danny is an empty shell and more than a little creepy
And now she’s working up the courage to tell him she’s leaving
Cuckoo bird laid an egg in our nest
And when it hatched she fed it and then starved the rest
She says I’m the reason that we’re in this mess
When she’s the one who flew away and that’s my fault I guess
I thought I was done writing breakup songs
I thought we were winning it
Of course we had problems when he came along
But I know that he did us in
