Hourglass

Oooo oooo oooo oooo I saw time Sift across the desert And escape the sun Weaving to freedom It flew through to her lips My central nervous system Fingertips Grip upon her hips And time has stopped at last Making its way into an hourglass Oooo oooo ooo Ooo oooooo Hourglass Oooo Sits on a table Could interrogate my past With every effort Of a talisman That Has no task to commit to oooo And I saw a bird Chirping in the desert He was thirsty... and (So thirsty) No one ever heard him As he soared toward an ocean Arriving in his mind Beside all of the villagers With less than less than less than nothing Bringing scraps to a god that they yearn for Sleep through the storms My darling time will pass Sand pieces slipping down An hourglass Oh heaven is ten tiny grains away Hey, pay no mind to the hourglass To the hourglass Midnight summers and the dawn of the fall Of humankind, kindly dispel with all of these Senseless rumors, and mind every wall of the hourglass And I heard heaven In the voice of a muse I amused her with song Lazy days and confusion Yes her thong was red And the thongs of my sandals Kicked off in her bed Where the bones of the future sit quietly inside Of her widening hips Bouncing around with simple tonic water Maybe a daughter or perhaps a son Nine months Become humble It's arriving fast Passing down, down through an hourglass Oooo ooo hourglass Oooo oooo ooo hourglass Midnight summers and the dawn of the fall Of humankind, kindly dispel with all of these Senseless rumors, and mind every wall of the hourglass Ooo I saw time and the bird and I heard All the crying in the hourglass And I'm in the hourglass If you're here too, please somebody come and convince me now Oooo ooo ooo ooo Hourglass hourglass Ooo ooo ooo ooooooo Now I'm going away
