Hickory Dickory Dock (Full Audio and Lyrics)
Hickory Dickory Dock,
The mouse went up the clock,
The clock struck one
The mouse went down,
Hickory Dickory Dock.
Hickory Dickory Dock,
The mouse went up the clock,
As twelve bells rang.
The mousie sprang,
Hickory Dickory Dock.
Hickory Dickory Dock,
The mouse went up the clock,
The clock struck one
The mouse went down,
Hickory Dickory Dock.
Tick tock, tick tock,
Tick tock, tick tock.

Background notes
Hard to understand for children today and only very rarely seen in a modern house: A clock.
Back in analog, long gone days, clocks used to tick and tock and they used to be big. Bigger than smartphones, even bigger than PCs. They used to be so big that you could climb up on them. At least if you were a mouse.
As a child you could have tried to do the same but you might have run into trouble.
