Oranges and lemons,<\/p>\n

Say the bells of St. Clement’s.<\/p>\n

You owe me five farthings,<\/p>\n

Say the bells of St. Martin’s.<\/p>\n

When will you pay me?<\/p>\n

Say the bells at Old Bailey.<\/p>\n

When I grow rich,<\/p>\n

Say the bells at Shoreditch.<\/p>\n

When will that be?<\/p>\n

Say the bells of Stepney.<\/p>\n

I do not know,<\/p>\n

Says the great bell at Bow.<\/p>\n

Here comes a candle to light you to bed,<\/p>\n

And here comes a chopper to chop off your head!<\/p>\n

Chip chop chip chop the last man is dead.<\/p>\n
