Did anyone catch the words of the child's song at the end of Night Terrors ? The only line I could make out was the last one "...even for the Doctor".


Here's the whole thing:

Tick, tock, goes the clock, and what things shall we see?

Tick, tock, until the day, that thou shall marry me.

Tick, tock, goes the clock, and all the years they fly.

Tick, tock, and all too soon, you and I must die.

Tick, tock, goes the clock, we laughed at fate and mourned her.

Tick, tock, goes the clock, even for the Doc…

Tick, tock, goes the clock, he cradled and he rocked her.

Tick, tock, goes the clock, even for the Doctor.

Mark Gatiss said that Moffat asked him to write a "spooky nursery rhyme" that prefigures the Doctor's upcoming death, but didn't give him any details beyond that. So, there shouldn't be any clues hidden in the words.

Unless, of course, Gatiss and Moffat were both lying, which is always possible… --173.228.85.35 06:44, September 5, 2011 (UTC)
