Cuckoo Clock

The cuckoo in the clock by day
Is usually very gay;
And that's because, with people near,
There's not a thing for him to fear;

But when the sitting room is dim
And no one's there to welcome him—
How tremblingly he must come out
To flap his wings and look about.

Why! Only just the other night
The cuckoo stopped the clock from fright!
