When Dicky was sick In the night, and the clock, As he listened, said "Tick- Atty -- tick-atty -- tock!"
He said that _it_ said, Every time it said "Tick,"
It said "Sick," instead, And he _heard_ it say "Sick!"
And when it said "Tick- Atty -- tick-atty -- tock,"
He said it said "Sick- Atty -- sick-atty -- sock!"
And he tried to _see_ then, But the light was too dim, Yet he _heard_ it again -- And't was _talking_ to him!
And then it said "Sick- Atty -- sick-atty -- sick You poor little Dick- Atty -- Dick-atty -- dock!
Have you got the hick- Atties? Hi! send for Doc To hurry up quick Atty -- quick-atty -- quock, And heat a hot brick- Atty -- brick-atty -- brock,
And rikle-ty wrap it And clickle-ty clap it Against his cold feet- Al-ty -- weep-aty -- eepaty -- _There_ he goes, slapit- Ty -- slippaty -- sleepaty! "
