Lyrics

Babylon's Burning

Babylon is burning

You're burning the street

You're burning your houses

With anxiety

With anxiety

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning

With anxiety

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning

You're burning the street

You're burning the ghetto

With anxiety

With anxiety

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning

With anxiety

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning

Can't you see?

Babylon is burning

With anxiety

You'll burn as you're work

You'll burn as you're play

Smouldering

With ignorance and hate

And with anxiety

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning

With anxiety

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning, baby

Can't you see?

Babylon's burning

With anxiety

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning

Babylon is... burning

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning

Babylon is burning
