Tick tock

Tick tock, tick tock
Something's coming down the stairs

Tick tock, tick tock
There's water going everywhere

A pipe has burst
And now the worst
Is happening tonight

Tick tock, tick tock
Mothers grab your children's hands

Tick tock, tick tock
We're off to find some other lands

Hey I see a shoe
Does that by chance
Belong to you

Tick tock, tick tock
Time has frozen on a 12

Tick tock, tick tock
Yet the needle keeps on moving

Tick tock, tick tock
It is going left and right

Tick tock, tick tock
One minute ahead and before

I can not explain
So from that
I will refrain

Tick tock, tick tock
Sounding like a metronome

Tick tock, tick tock
And we have to leave our home

Tick tock, tick tock
Like a waterfall it's coming down

Tick tock, tick tock
Hold together so we do not drown

I'm done with these quips
Let's desert this
Sinking ship

Tick tock, tick tock
The door is bursting open now

Tick tock, tick tock
We have safely gotten out

What more can I say
Now we must be
On our way
