"I'M THE GUILDFORD GUILDHALL CLOCK I AM! "
Oh I've been knocking out time now since…eh….let's see 1683
Minutes and decades flow through me
The everlasting skies above me.
I'm iconic I am
dressed in my black and gold.
I (if I may be so bold)
AM GUILDFORD.
The pride of Surrey.
I watch the High Street
as it runs down to that
young whippersnapper statue
THE SCHOLAR or whatever.
People congregate about the chap
eat sandwiches….listen to a busker
busk opera.
Only in Guildford!
But it's me they look up to!
And is it time for tea?
Why so it is and...
citizens clatter over the cobbles.
I'm the Guildford Guildhall clock I am!
Tip! top!
Ticktock! Ticktock! Tiptop! Tip top!
TIP! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
TOP! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
