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 too

Democrat breaks down too

Oligarch breaks down too

Republicrat breaks down too

Aristocrat breaks down too

Democrat breaks down too

Oligarch breaks down too

Republicrat breaks down too

No hope left in the 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

Tickle tickle tickle, all your neck hairs prickle

As they barbecue the sentinels then eat them right in front of you

Hourglass smashed, a million little pieces

They count down, carry on: Five, four, three, two

Aristocrat breaks down too

Democrat breaks down too

Oligarch breaks down too

Republicrat breaks down too

Aristocrat breaks down too

Democrat breaks down too

Oligarch breaks down too

Republicrat breaks down too

Breaks down too

Aristocrat breaks down too

Democrat breaks down too

Oligarch breaks down too

Republicrat breaks down too

Aristocrat breaks down too

Democrat breaks down too

Oligarch breaks down too

Republicrat breaks down too

No hope left in the hourglass

A ten, nine, ready!

A ten, nine, ready!

A ten, nine, ready!

Hate, seven, six

Five, four, three, two

A ten, nine, ready!

A ten, nine, ready!

A ten, nine, ready!

Hate, seven, six

Five, four, three
