Tally gets nobleman out of bed! (5,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

count up

'tally' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'nobleman out of bed' is the wordplay.
'nobleman' becomes 'count' (count is a kind of nobleman).
'out of bed' becomes 'up' (synonyms).
'count'+'up'='COUNT UP'

'gets' is the link.

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
