The Douglas Brothers – Babylon lyrics
All the world’s a tangled mess
How we get out of it is anybody’s guess
Some guy in famoustown steps on a hornet’s nest
And its felt everywhere more or less

There’s a crazy behind a microphone foaming with insanity
Stringing barbed wire where our hearts used to be
Somehow there’s a difference between a con and a liar
When the truth’s been set on fire
But it’s not gone gone gone gone
Though it might be babylon-lon-lon-lon
Why don’t you go long
And I’ll come too
I heard Aristotle killed half the bottle
And Plato made up a new motto
About the bigger the pill the harder to swallow
Some act’s are just so hard to follow
Still it’s not gone gone gone gone
Though it might be babylon-lon-lon-lon
Why don’t you go long
And I’ll come too
We’re not the same at the start as we are at the end
Sometimes that’s how strangers become friends
I’ll take nice over important any day
At least you get to keep your soul together that way
It’s not gone gone gone gone
Though it might be babylon-lon-lon-lon
Why don’t you go long
And I’ll come too
I saw guy give his coat to someone freezing on the street
And a little girl flip a lady bug back on its feet
I guess its what you do with what you see
Now I remember what compassion used to be
It’s not gone gone gone gone
Though it might be babylon-lon-lon-lon
Why don’t you go long
And I’ll come too
It’s not gone gone gone gone
Though it might be babylon-lon-lon-lon
Why don’t you go long
And I’ll come too
