FROM MEMORY PT. 1

'Absolutely Cuckoo' by The Magnetic Fields, a high school classic that I inexplicably started singing today.

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
And now that I'm on the make
And if you make a mistake
My heart'll 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.

That's as much as I remember it, worked wonders in high school. I miss The Magnetic Fields, if I wanted to be dramatic I could say this song mirrors my life right now, but I have no interest in being dramatic.
