Tick tock.                             (* Newcomers must join before  *)
This game is locked.                   (* chant is over.              *)
Nobody else can play.                  (* Usually performed with all  *)

We'll take their shoe                  (* object-- like the jump rope *)
And beat them black and blue.          (* forming a circle.           *)
