| Babylon
|
| Is represented in the Bible by a stone
|
| Babylon
|
| Is thrown in a river and lost in a storm
|
| Babylon
|
| And never, never, ever again
|
| Will anybody ever wanna call you they home
|
| This is how you’re gonna sink, now
|
| I don’t care whatever you may think, now
|
| I’m gonna bring my wrath down on you, now
|
| So you’ll feel the weight of truth, now
|
| Gonna drop you like a rock of ages in the sea
|
| And disappear like a pebble in eternity
|
| Nobody wants to save what’s best left dead
|
| A tidal wave is gonna dig your grave
|
| Babylon
|
| Never ever again will you ever hear
|
| The sweet sound of no beautiful singer’s voice
|
| No angels playing guitars
|
| Or plucking on they harps
|
| No flutes, no trumpet players
|
| Will be left back of Bouchon
|
| Ain’t gonna be no ditch diggers, no construction workers
|
| No pimps, no hustlers, no jaw jerkers
|
| No city lights, no pretty sights
|
| Will ever shine on you again
|
| No more actors, no Max Factors
|
| Will smog your mind and leave you blind
|
| No politicians, no higher religions
|
| To guide you from the dark
|
| No more Love-Ins, no more Human Be-Ins
|
| Will light up Griffin Park
|
| Babylon
|
| On your hands is the blood of the prophets and all the holy ones
|
| Babylon
|
| Everyone you executed with your machine guns
|
| Babylon
|
| You’re bringing about your own destruction, Babylon
|
| I’m putting you down down down down
|
| Where you can never rise up again
|
| And watch your ashes light up the midnight skies once again
|
| After reading the words of this old scroll to you
|
| I hope you all cap back on the message
|
| Lord, that I just told to you
|
