Come lady hourglass
|
Take me by the hand
|
I'll shower you with gifts
|
If you'll just make the hard time pass
|
|
You're tall and blue and crystalline
|
I'll be yours if you'll be mine
|
In this ancient battle against time
|
We're bound to make a mark
|
|
We gotta get some weight on that tiny waist
|
Yeah open up that little space
|
With chocolate covered lollipops
|
And all that stuff
|
|
We'll break the spirits of the sand
|
In every hourglass of the land
|
Sand's rushing to your feet
|
Just like your head's on fire
|
|
Your head's on fire
|
|
Now it's been seven years inside a month
|
And I think our plan it worked too much
|
Cuz yesterday I woke up
|
And my life was gone
|
|
My hair is grey my skin is tough
|
I'm wrinkled and my voice is rough
|
Tell me lady hourglass
|
What went wrong?
|
|
Boy you gave me lollipops
|
And chocolate covered lemon drops
|
My waist it grew, the sand it dropped
|
And time flew by
|
|
With every single grain of sand
|
That passes through my crystal hands
|
A child is born, a boy's a man
|
This you have to understand
|
|
So play the cards that you were dealt
|
No matter if you're feeling well
|
The best will come around to you
|
The best will come, the best will come
|
The best will come around to you
|
Even if your head's on fire
|
|
Your head's on fire
|
|

Lady Hourglass, Your Head's On Fire!
