Lyrics

Babylon's Burning

[Verse 1] Babylon's burnin' You burn in the street You burn in your houses With anxiety [Chorus] With anxiety Babylon's burnin', Babylon's burnin' With anxiety Babylon's burnin', Babylon's burnin' [Verse 2] Babylon's burnin' You burn in the street You burn in the ghetto With anxiety [Chorus] With anxiety Babylon's burnin', Babylon's burnin' With anxiety Babylon's burnin', Babylon's burnin' [Hook] Babylon's burnin', baby can't you see? Babylon is burnin' with anxiety [Verse 3] You burn as you work You burn as you play The spark of fear is smolderin' With ignorance and hate [Chorus] And with anxiety Babylon's burnin', Babylon's burnin' With anxiety Babylon's burnin', Babylon's burnin' [Hook] Babylon's burnin', baby can't you see? Babylon is burnin' with anxiety [Outro] Babylon's burnin', Babylon's burnin' Babylon is burnin' Babylon's burnin', Babylon's burnin' Babylon's burnin'
