Babylon

Take to the streets, spread the word around
Politicians and priests are bringing us down
They have a list of do's and don'ts
They know all your wills and won'ts

'Cause that's the way it's always been
It it's not illegal then it's a sin
Gotta keep you all in line
Looks as though we've finally built another

Babylon, Babylon

Send you to school where you're carefully taught
Then control your every thought
Saying give us money and we'll give you love
Send you all to Heaven above

Teach you to be good, grow up strong
Nobody taught me how to get along
Stuff you full of things just to fill your head
It does no good when you end up dead in

Babylon, Babylon, Babylon, Babylon

For an unseen God, you start a war
Burn a witch and kill the poor
I've had enough of telling lies
I've had enough of religious crimes

I don't need no reverend
I don't need no Krishna too
No more kings will wear the crown
Now it's time to tear it down

Babylon, Babylon, Babylon
Babylon, Babylon
