Swiss Time Town

Once upon A clock Behold Midnight special Centerpiece Right in the square Beware A Thief struck during the night The clock had been stolen, but out of sight The wonder became who and how The citizens thought oh wow Everyone was horrified Some were even petrified The clock was the attention of the town Distance far enabled from surrounding communities Swiss time town was about unity The clock made Swiss Time Town famous Acknowledgement The question that came up was why was the clock stolen? The clock had value in the hearts of the people, and meant everything to the town’s people The Thief saw fortune The long hand made the short hand into a theory But it was still a mystery Search after search No find The Thief was certainly not kind Without a visual clock, what will happen to Swiss Time Town? Moments are ticking, but no sound The clock is nowhere to be found The town got together and started connecting to each other in song and inspiring themselves Until the clock is found being a if and when What will the town people do until then? It’s not a time to be discouraged, but embrace one another Suddenly without warning, the clock appeared back at center in the square as if the thief had a heart or the singing touched the soul of thief Swiss Time Town relief Tick tock The sound of time Hope came alive Strive How about that? Centerpiece of tranquil Acceleration will Happily ever after Until Time in, but didn’t die out
