Babylon Love lyrics
Babylon love, Babylon love, oh Babylon love
In the land of creation
The well has run dry
All the prophets have been stoned
Or are flying high
There’s no-one to guide or give advice
The currency of the street is pure ice
It needs to rain down hard from above
To wash away this Babylon love
This Babylon love, Babylon love
The poor are staring above to the stars
As the rich they book their next trip to Mars
When you have money it’s never enough
In this land of Babylonian love
Babylonian love
The gates of Babylon are closed on you
You cannot escape no matter what you do
Corruption and bribery are everywhere
Those in authority laugh and don’t care
Those in authority laugh and don’t care
Just don’t care
Killings on the streets every day
Drugs bought for guns by the C.I.A.
A land of confusion is what we got
If you run from the police you’ll get shot
Life is hard, life is tuff
In this land of Babylon love
Life is hard, life is tuff
In this land of Babylon love
Babylon love, Babylonian love
Some talk of revolution to free our minds
And put those on trial for their crimes
But talk of freedom is white man’s bluff
Will we ever be free of this Babylonian love?
Babylon love is repression and hate
Practiced by authority holding the keys to the gate
They trick and lie and say we’re as free as a dove
But the dove is caged by Babylon love
But the dove is caged by Babylon love
But the dove is caged by Babylon love
But the dove is caged by Babylon love
Oh Babylon love

Babylon Love musically is a soft rock/pop Reggae blend. Paul’s Bowie-esque voice sings truth to the world, reminding us that Babylon Love is repression and hate.
