Lyrics

(Clara Belle Baker, 1921)

1. Upon the staircase landing,
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tock-tock, tock-tock,
Upon the staircase landing,
There stands a big hall clock, tick-tock.
There stands a big hall clock.

2. We wake up in the morning,
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tock-tock, tock-tock,
We wake up in the morning
At sound of that big clock, tick-tock,
At sound of that big clock.

3. We go to Kindergarten,
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tock-tock, tock-tock,
We go to Kindergarten
At bid of that big clock, tick-tock.
At bid of that big clock.

4. We come home to our dinner,
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tock-tock, tock-tock,
We come home to our dinner
At call of that big clock, tick-tock.
At call of that big clock.

5. At night we go to dreamland,
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tock-tock, tock-tock,
At night we go to dreamland
By croon of that big clock, tick-tock.
By croon of that big clock.
