The cuck-coo clock
G. Grant-Schaefer
On the wall hangs a brown wooden clock,
Saying tick! tock! tick! tock!
'Twas carv'd from a tree in fair Germanie,
Tick! tock! tick! tock!
In its heart lives a pretty bird blue,
Cuck-coo!
Tho' made of pine wood,
Its almost as good
As a wonderful, real and true
Cuck-coo!
See a little red door at the top,
flip flop!
Out flies the bird blue to sing just for you,
Cuck-coo!
