Oranges and lemons,
Say the bells of St. Clements
You owe me five farthings,
Say the bells of St. Martin's
When will you pay me?
Say the bells of Old Bailey
When I grow rich,
Say the bells of Shoreditch
When will that be?
Say the bells of Stepney
I do not know,
Says the great bell of Bow
Here comes a candle to light you to bed,
Here comes a chopper to chop off your head
Pancakes and fritters,
Say the bells of St. Peter's
Two sticks and an apple,
Say the bells of Whitechapel
Old Father Baldpate,
Say the slow bells of Aldgate
Pokers and tongs,
Say the bells of St. John's
Kettles and pans,
Say the bells of St. Ann's
Brickbats and tiles,
Say the bells of St. Giles'
Here comes a candle to light you to bed,
Here comes a chopper to chop off your head
Chop chop chop chop
