THE CUCKOO by ANONYMOUS

First Line: THE CUCKOO IS A MERRY BIRD / SHE SINGS AS SHE FLIES
Last Line: THREE MONTHS IN THE YEAR
Subject(s): BIRDS;CUCKOOS;
THE cuckoo is a merry bird,
She sings as she flies;
She brings us good tidings,
And tells us no lies.

She sucks little birds' eggs
To make her voice clear,
That she may sing Cuckoo!
Three months in the year.
