A Perfect Circle — Hourglass

[Verse 1] Red flag red, all the sentinels are dead The Tokyo kitty, swallow, rose, and canary Tick tick tick, do you recognize the sounds as the grains count down Trickle down right in front of you? [Verse 2] A little tickle tickle tickle, all your neck hairs prickle As they barbecue the sentinels and eat them right in front of you Hourglass smashed, a million little pieces The count down, carry on, five, four, three, two [Chorus] Aristocrat breaks down to Timocrat breaks down to Oligarch breaks down to Republocrat breaks down to Aristocrat breaks down to Timocrat breaks down to Oligarch breaks down to Republocrat breaks down to No hope left in the hourglass [Verse 1] Red flag red, all the sentinels are damned The Tokyo kitty, swallow, rose, and canary Tick tick tick, do you recognize the sounds as the grains count down? Trickle down right in front of you [Verse 2] Tickle tickle tickle, all your neck hairs prickle As they barbecue the sentinels then eat them right in front of you Hourglass smashed, a million little pieces The count down, carry on, five, four, three, two [Chorus] Aristocrat breaks down to Timocrat breaks down to Oligarch breaks down to Republocrat breaks down to Aristocrat breaks down to Timocrat breaks down to Oligarch breaks down to Republocrat breaks down to Breaks down to Aristocrat breaks down to Timocrat breaks down to Oligarch breaks down to Republocrat breaks down to Aristocrat breaks down to Timocrat breaks down to Oligarch breaks down to Republocrat breaks down to No hope left in the hourglass [Outro] A ten, niner, eight! A ten, niner, eight! A ten, niner, eight! Eight, seven, six Five, four, three, two A ten, niner, eight! Eight, seven, six Five, four, three
