My Grandfather's Clock - Bossa Kids[00:00:00]

My grandfather's clock[00:00:18]

Was too large for the shelf[00:00:20]

So it stood ninety years on the floor[00:00:22]

It was taller by half than the old man himself[00:00:27]

Though it weighed not a penny weight more[00:00:31]

It was bought on the morn[00:00:36]

Of the day that he was born[00:00:38]

And was always his treasure and pride[00:00:40]

But it stopped short never to go again[00:00:45]

When the old man died[00:00:50]

Ninety years without slumbering[00:00:54]

Tick Tock Tick Tock[00:00:57]

His life seconds numbering[00:00:59]

Tick Tock Tick Tock[00:01:01]

It stopped short never to go again[00:01:04]

When the old man died[00:01:08]

In watching its pendulum[00:01:20]

Swing to and fro[00:01:22]

Many hours had he spent as a boy[00:01:24]

And in childhood and manhood[00:01:29]

The clock seemed to know[00:01:31]

And share both his grief and his joy[00:01:33]

And it struck twenty four[00:01:38]

When he entered at the door[00:01:40]

With a blooming and beautiful bride[00:01:42]

But it stopped short[00:01:47]

Never to go again[00:01:49]

When the old man died[00:01:51]

Ninety years without slumbering[00:01:56]

Tick tock tick tock[00:01:58]

His life seconds numbering[00:02:01]

Tick tock tick tock[00:02:03]

It stopped short[00:02:05]

Never to go again[00:02:08]

When the old man died[00:02:10]

It rang an alarm[00:02:17]

In the dead of the night[00:02:19]

An alarm that for years had been dumb[00:02:21]

And we knew that his spirit[00:02:26]

Was pluming his flight[00:02:28]

That his hour of departure had come[00:02:30]

Still the clock kept the time[00:02:35]

With a soft and muffled chime[00:02:37]

As we silently stood by his side[00:02:39]

But it stopped short[00:02:44]

Never to go again[00:02:47]

When the old man died[00:02:49]
