SAY THE WORD LYRICS

Say the word,
Over and over again
This order is an idea
Written by the ruling pen
The word was first
Used so you could understand
Their goal will be your path
With a promise of a promised land.

Soon they’ll be a time they say it’s a condition
When you've made up your own mind
Made your own decision
To go against the nightmare that they’re selling as a dream

We are our own Creators, we’re born and sold a lie
We can make it up now for ourselves and leave their world behind.
We are our own Creators, we’re born and sold a lie
We can make it up now for ourselves and leave their world behind.

Say the word,
Over and over again
This order is an idea
Written by the ruling pen
The word was first
Used so you could understand
Their goal will be your path
With a promise of a promised land.

We are our own Creators we’re born and sold a lie
We can make it up now for ourselves and leave their world behind
We are our own Creators we’re born and sold a lie
We can make it up now for ourselves and leave their world behind

They gave us prose..
Listen to the voice inside your head
Speaking verse you can hear but your mouths have never said
This is who we are cast your spells and raise the dead.

We are our own Creators
We are our own Creators
We are our own Creators
We are our own Creators

We are our own Creators we’re born and sold a lie
We can make it up now for ourselves and leave their world behind
We are our own Creators we’re born and sold a lie
We can make it up now for ourselves and leave their world behind

There's something elemental about the music of Cuckoo Clocks, the counterpoint of Tracy Deakin's powerful vocal balanced by Paul Infanti's knowing tones, the compelling blend lifted aloft by soaring six point harmonies. The Cuckoo Clocks combine hypnotic swathes of West Coast psychedelia, country tinged soul with a nod to folk electronica. ... more
