lyrics

BABEL RISING

So 007 cannot be black?
And Dr Who can only be a chap?
And if you serve your god and queen
You'll get to heaven - your sins wiped clean
Babel rising

Spice from the east fine wine from the south
The foreign food you put in your mouth
Surely shows you're integrated?
But it seems the mind is belated
Babel rising

Re-building the tower to prove themselves great
Refusing the freedom to migrate
Go be fruitful and multiply
But still Babel rises to the sky

INSTRUMENTAL

Borders, flags, identity, belief
Separates us all like the falling leaf
Hanging on by the veins of race
When Winter comes, you'll fall in disgrace
Babel rising
