America Babylon
Well, we pay our homage daily to the god of energy
And we let our incense rise up to the sky
And the frightened voices tell us
They say that we must sacrifice
And in the day we stop
We will surely die
Then we sold our souls to industry
To desecrate God's land
For we must appease the masters that we've made
For the prophets have misled us and now we realize
That where we've come is not worth the price we've paid
Humble yourself, America
And remember how to pray
And like a wayward child it's time that you came home
For America, you've played the harlot
You've put your faith in guns and bombs
And you've lost your way on a sea of scarlet
You've got another name
It's Babylon
For your sins are reaching to the heavens
Your judgment will be swift and strong
Your future's hanging in the balance
Come back, America
It's been too long
When you started as a little child
You seemed to know the truth
But somehow, somethings changed along the way
For you were charmed with strength and power
And confused with lust for more
And from your early love you turned away
And we let our incense rise up to the sky
And the frightened voices tell us
They say that we must sacrifice
And in the day we stop
We will surely die
Then we sold our souls to industry
To desecrate God's land
For we must appease the masters that we've made
For the prophets have misled us and now we realize
That where we've come is not worth the price we've paid
Humble yourself, America
And remember how to pray
And like a wayward child it's time that you came home
For America, you've played the harlot
You've put your faith in guns and bombs
And you've lost your way on a sea of scarlet
You've got another name
It's Babylon
For your sins are reaching to the heavens
Your judgment will be swift and strong
Your future's hanging in the balance
Come back, America
It's been too long
When you started as a little child
You seemed to know the truth
But somehow, somethings changed along the way
For you were charmed with strength and power
And confused with lust for more
And from your early love you turned away
