Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Curtains drawn
Graveyard dark
Alarm set late
But you jump at the bark
Feathers flared
Little crown of doom
Beady eyes blazing
In your funeral room
[Chorus]
The cockatoo screams at dawn (wake up, lover)
Like a banshee in the hall
Calling you on
At the bedroom door
Claws on the floor (hey!)
"Get up
Get up
Get up"
Till you love me more
The cockatoo screams at dawn
Your name like a spell it scrawls in its squawk
At the bedroom door
I’m cursed by a bird that adores
[Verse 2]
You pull sheets
Like a velvet shroud
It tilts its head
Then doubles the sound
"Where are you?"
Every word a knife
Little ghost with wings
Guarding my life
[Chorus]
The cockatoo screams at dawn (wake up, sinner)
Like a banshee in the hall
Dragging you on
At the bedroom door
Claws on the floor (hey!)
"Get up
Get up
Get up"
I’m the one you swore
The cockatoo screams at dawn
Your name like a spell it scrawls in its squawk
At the bedroom door
I’m bound to the bird that adores
[Bridge]
You say I haunt you
But look at this fiend
White as a bone
With a voice that keens
You say you love me
Till death
Till dust
It screams
"Wake up!"
And protects that trust (ooh)
[Chorus]
The cockatoo screams at dawn (wake up, lover)
Like a banshee in the hall
Dragging you on
At the bedroom door
Claws on the floor (hey!)
"Get up
Get up
Get up"
This is gothic rapport
The cockatoo screams at dawn
Our strange little herald of terrible love
At the bedroom door
We kiss while it screams for more
