219. Hurry, Mr. Clock

1 Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock,
Listen to old Mister Clock!
Ticking all the hours away,
Till the merry Christmas day!

Refrain:
With you tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock,
Please hurry up, Mister Clock;
O you count the hours so slow!
Can’t you make them faster, faster go?
With you rick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock,
Please hurry up, Mr. Clock.

2 When it’s summer time so dear,
Vacation time then is here,
And you tick the hours so fast,
From the first one to the last! [Refrain]

3 Dear me, we can scarcely wait,
O how you exasperate!
Hurry, Mister Clock and say,
“Merry, merry Christmas day!” [Refrain]
