The Rest of Hickory

Hickory Dickory Dock,
The mouse ran up the clock,
The clock struck one and down he run,
Hickory Dickory dock – Tik Toc,

The end of Hickory Dickory you don’t know,
when up the side of the clock the mouse did go,
He chewed through the wire and started a fire,
To fix that damage, Hickory paid through the nose.
