Lady Hourglass, Your Head's On Fire! Lyrics

Come Lady Hourglass

Take me by the hand

I'll shower you with gifts

If you'll just make the hard times pass



Tall and blue and crystalline

I'll be yours if you'll be mine

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

Chocolate covered lollypops and all that stuff



Break the spirits of the sand

And every hourglass of the land

Sands rushing to your feet

Just like your head's on fire



Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!



Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!



I spent seven years inside a moth

And I think I plan or work too much

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?



You gave me lollypops

And chocolate covered lemon drops

Wasted crew, the sand had dropped

Time flew by



Every single grain of sand

That passes through my crystal hands

A chalice born of boys and man

In case you have to understand



Play the cards that you will tell

Matter if you're feeling well

The best will come around you, even if...

The best will come, the best will come

The best will come around you

Even if your head's on fire



Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!



Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!



Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!



Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!



Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!

Your head's on fire!
