A Perfect Circle

A Perfect Circle is an American rock supergroup formed in 1999 by guitarist Billy Howerdel and Tool vocalist Maynard James Keenan. The original incarnation of the band also included Paz Lenchantin on bass, Troy Van Leeuwen on guitar, and Tim Alexander on drums. The latest lineup features Puscifer and Ashes Divide bassist Matt McJunkins, former guitarist for The Smashing Pumpkins, James Iha. Despite having a varied cast since inception, the stylistic content of the songs has remained consistent with Howerdel as composer, and Keenan penning the lyrics and melodies. more »

Red flag red, all the sentinels are dead
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

You tickle tickle tickle, all your neck hairs prickle
As they barbecue the sentinels, and eat them right in front of you
Hourglass smash, a million little pieces
They count down, carry on, five, four, three, two

Plutocrat breaks down too
Democrat breaks down too
Oligarch breaks down too
Republicrat breaks down too
Aristocrat breaks down too
Cenocrat breaks down to
Oligarch breaks down to
Republicrat breaks down to
No hope left in the hourglass

Red flag red, all the sentinels are dead
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

You tickle tickle tickle, all your neck hairs prickle
As they barbecue the sentinels, and eat them right in front of you
Hourglass smash, a million little pieces
They count down, carry on, five, four, three, two

Plutocrat breaks down too
Democrat breaks down too
Oligarch breaks down too
Republicrat breaks down too
Aristocrat breaks down too
Cenocrat breaks down to
Oligarch breaks down to
Republicrat breaks down to

Breaks down to
Democrat breaks down too
Oligarch breaks down too
Republicrat breaks down too
Aristocrat breaks down too
Cenocrat breaks down to
Oligarch breaks down to
Republicrat breaks down to

No hope left in the hourglass

A ten, a nine, an eight
A ten, a nine, an eight
A ten, a nine, an eight
Eight, seven, six
Five, four, three, two

A ten, a nine, an eight
Eight seven six
Five four three
