Lyrics Lady Hourglass, Your Head's On Fire! - Said The Whale

Lady Hourglass, Your Head's On Fire!

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
