Believe You Me

The cuckoo clock quit chirping

The bird fell out and died

Spent its whole life working

And never learned to fly

It ran out of time

A man jumped in the river

To wash away his sin

In his religious fervor

Forgot he couldn't swim

No one saved his skin

Believe you me

I want to believe in you

Believe you me

I want to believe I do

A woman works the corner

Of Hollywood and Vine

No one can afford her

But we stand in line

Cause her love is blind

Believe you me

I want to believe in you

Believe you me

I want to believe I do
