A Perfect Circle - Hourglass

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?

a little tickle tickle tickle, all your neck hairs prickle
as they barbecue the sentinels then eat them right in front of you
hourglass smashed, a billion little pieces
the count down, carry on: five, four, three, two

aristocrat breaks down to
democrat breaks down to
oligarch breaks down to
republicrat breaks down to
aristocrat breaks down to
democrat breaks down to
oligarch breaks down to
republicrat breaks down to
no hope left in the hourglass

kirmizi bayrak kirmizi, tum nobetciler lanetli
Tokyo kedisi yutar gulu ve kanaryayi
tik tik tik tanecikler geriye sayarken sesi farkediyor musun?
tam onunde damla damla akiyor

kucuk bir tik tik tik, ve tum ensendeki saclar urperir
nobetcileri barbeku yapip tam onunde yerlerken
kumsaati kirildi milyarlarca kucuk parcaya
geri sayima, devam et: bes, dort, uc,iki

aristokratlar yikilir,
demokratlar yikilir,
oligarsikler yikilir,
demo-cumhuriyetciler* yikilir,
aristokratlar yikilir,
demokratlar yikilir,
oligarsikler yikilir,
demo-cumhuriyetciler* yikilir,
kum saatinde hic umut kalmadi
