A fun and catchy song about learning to tell the time.

Tick-Tock Goes The Clock

What time is it? Let’s ask the clock.
What time is it? It says ‘tick-tock’.
What time is it? Let’s find out
What it’s all about.

Tick-tock goes the clock,
Tick-tock goes the clock.
It goes on ticking all day long
As we sing our happy song.

1 The little hand points to the hour
It moves very slowly.
One, two, three, four, five o'clock,
It moves very slowly.
The big hand points to the minutes
It moves much more quickly.
Five-past, ten-past, quarter-past
It moves much more quickly.

Tick-tock goes the clock,
Tick-tock goes the clock.
It goes on ticking all day long
As we sing our happy song.

2 When the big hand points to three
Then it’s quarter-past.
When it points straight down to six
Then it’s half-past.
When the big hand points to nine
Then it’s quarter-to.
When it points straight up to twelve
Then what does it do?
It chimes! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
Eight o'clock!

Tick-tock goes the clock,
Tick-tock goes the clock.
It goes on ticking all day long
As we sing our happy song.

3 We eat our breakfast at eight o'clock
Munch! Munch! Munch!
And when the time is twelve o'clock
We have a tasty lunch.
We work hard at school all day,
Then we’re home by four.
By eight o'clock we’re fast asleep
Snore! Snore! Snore!

Tick-tock goes the clock,
Tick-tock goes the clock.
It goes on ticking all day long
As we sing our happy song.

Tick-tock goes the clock,
Tick-tock goes the clock.
It goes on ticking all day long
As we sing our happy song.
