Tick  Tock, Tick  Tock
The world begun, begun the clock

Tick  Tock, Tick  Tock
At first was water, water and rock

Tick  Tock, Tick  Tock
Then living beings, being flower and cock

Tick  Tock, Tick  Tock
Now there’s man, man and his stock

Tick  Tock, Tick  Tock
Resources gone, gone water and rock

Tick  Tock, Tick  Tock
Too soon rundown, rundown the clock

Tick….Tock….Tick..
