The Clock
There's a neat little clock, In the school room it stands, And points to the time, With its two little hands. And may we, like the clock, Keep a face clean and bright, With hands ever ready, To do what is right.

Grandfather's Clock
My grand-father's clock was too large for the shelf, So it stood ninety years on the floor; It was tall-er by half than the old man himself, though it weighed not a pen-ny weight more. It was bought on the morn of the day he was born, and was al-ways his treasure and pride; But it stopp'd short nev-er to go a-gain When the old man died. Ninety years, without slumbering (tick, toc, tick, toc) His life seconds numbering (tick, toc, tick, toc) It stopp'd Short never to go a-gain, When the old man died.

The Clock Poem

Sung to: Im Lumberjack I'm in the clock crew and I'm okay! I tick all night and I tick all day. I've got two hands, I'm having a ball, Because I've got no arms at all! My big hand can move sixty minutes in one hour, I'm the one with the strength and power. My small hand isn't quite as fast. If they were in a race, it would come last! It takes so long just to get around (12 hours you know), It's careful, small, and slow. Now meet my friends that help me tick-tock, Half past, quarter past, quarter to and o'clock.

The Faces Of The Clock

The Big Hand is busy But the Small Hand has power. The large one counts the minutes. But the Little One names the hour. When both Hands stand at the top together, It's sure to be Twelve O'clock. But whether That's twelve at noon or twelve at night Depends on if it's dark or light.

Hickory Dickory Dock (again)

HIckory Dickory Dock, The mouse ran up the clock; The clock struck One, The mouse ran down, Hickory Dickory Dock! Hickory Dickory Dock, The mouse ran up the clock; The clock struck Two, The mouse said BOO! Hickory Dickory Dock! Hickory Dickory Dock, The mouse ran up the clock; The clock struck Three, The mouse said Wheeeee... As he slid down the clock!

Clock Song
Sung to: "The Wheels on the Bus" The hands on the clock go round and round, Round and round, round and round. The hands on the clock go round and round. To tell us the time. The short hand on the clock Goes from number to number, Number to number, number to number. The short hand on the clock Goes from number to number. To tell us the hour. The long hand on the clock Goes around by fives, Around by fives, around by fives. The long hand on the clock Goes around by fives. To tell us the minutes.

Monday's child
Monday's child is fair of face, Tuesday's child is full of grace, Wednesday's child is full of woe, Thursday's child has far to go, Friday's child is loving and giving, Saturday's child works hard for a living, But the child that's born on the Sabbath day, Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.

The Months
January brings the snow; Makes our feet and fingers glow. February brings the rain; Thaws the frozen pond again. March brings the wind so cold and chill; Drives the cattle from the hill. April brings us sun and showers, And the pretty wildwood flowers. May brings grass and leafy trees, Waving in each gentle breeze. June brings roses, fresh and fair, And the cherries ripe and rare. July brings the greatest heat, Cloudless skies and dusty street. August brings the golden grain; Harvest time is here again. Mild September brings us more Fruit and grain, for winter store. Brown October brings the last Of ripening gifts, from summer past. Dull November brings the blast: Down from the trees the leaves fall fast. Cold December ends the rhyme With blazing fires and Christmas time.
