Why one is so long and the other so
short
And one he moves fast an done slow.
From breakfast to supper,
Right on through the day,
"Tick-tock, tick.tock, am the only
clock,
Tick-tock, textbook" he'll say.
AT night when I'm sleeping, he keeps
wide awake
To see what the little mice do;
He watches the brownie creep in
through the blind,
His little red shoes wet with dew.
Right on through the day,
"Tick-tock, textbook, am the only
clock,
Ttek-tOck, textbook" hen say.
And when it comes morning wish he
would tell,
i ask BIN. but never trace
OF the wonderful things that he saw in
the night
Does he show in his sober old face.
Right on through the day,
The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1909-04-21
