"A German Clockwinder to Dublin once came
Benjamin Fuchs was the old German’s name
And as he was making his way ‘round the strand
He played on his lute and the music was grand" Stevi's voice chimes
"Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
There was a young lady in Grosvenor Square
Who said that her clock was in need of repair
In walked the German and to her delight
In less than five minutes, he had her clock right" A wicked grin and strum
"Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
"And as they were sitting right down on the floor
There came a very loud knock on the door
In walked her husband and great was his shock
To see that old German wind up his wife’s clock
Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
And then says her husband “Look here, Maryann
Don’t let that old German come in here again
He wound up your clock and left mine on the shelf
If your old clock needs winding, I’ll do it myself!”
Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
Then says the German, “Sir, I meant you no harm,
But the spring wouldn’t work in your old wife’s alarm,
So I took out me oil-can, and I gave it a squirt
If you kept it well-oiled, your wife’s clock would work!”
Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
AGAIN
Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay”
Singing “Too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-lam-a-lam-a, too-ra-li-ay
Too-ra-li, oo-ra-li, oo-ra-li-ay!"
