 Rate Syncopated Clock
Artist : Leroy Anderson
Song : Syncopated Clock
There was a man like you and me, as simple as a
man could ever be;
And he was happy as a king,
except for one peculiar thing.
He had a
clock that worked all right,
It worked all
right, but not exactly quite;
Instead of going
"tick, tock, tick",
the crazy clock went "tock,
tick, tock".
The poor old man just raved
and raved, because nobody could say
Why his
silly clock behaved that hickory dickory
way.
But now a famous man is he, He owns a
public curiosity;
>From far and wide the
people flock To hear the syncopated
clock.
Tick-a-tock,
tick-a-tock,
There's a zing in the swing of
that clock,
Tock-a-tick, tock-a-tick,
Don't
you think it's a marvelous
trick?
Ting-a-ling,
ting-a-ling,
There's a zong in the bong of
that ring,
Ling-a-ting, ling-a-ting,
Don't
you think it's a wonderful thing?
The
experts came to hear and see,
But none of them
could solve the mystery.
They called Professor
Einstein too,
He said "There's nothing I can
do".
But soon the fickle human race will
find another freak to take its
place,
And
one fine day the man will hock the poor old
syncopated clock.
