Emmylou Harris - Time In Babylon Lyrics
(Emmylou HarrisJill Cunniff)Five-lane highway danger zoneSUV and a speaker phoneYou need that chrome to get you homeDoin' time in BabyionCluster mansion on the hillAnother day in PleasantvilleYou don't like it take a pillDoin1 time in BabyionIn the land of the proud and freeYou can sell your soul and your dignityFor fifteen minutes on TVDoin'time in BabyionSo suck the fat, cut the boneFill it up with siliconeEverybody must get clonedDoin' time in BabyionLittle Boy Blue come blow your hornThe crows are in the cornThe morning sky is red and falling downThe piper's at the tillHe's coming for the killLuring all our children underground in BabyionWe came frorn apple pie and momThru Civil Rights and Ban the BombTo Watergate and Vietnam Hard times in BabyionRallied 'round the megaphoneGave it up, just got stonedNow it's Prada, Gucci and PerronDoin' time in BabyionGet results, get 'em fastWe're ready if you got the cashSomeone else will be laughin' lastDoin' time in BabyionSo put that conscience on the shelfKeep the best stuff for yourselfLet the rest fight over what is leftDoin' time in BabyionLittle Boy Blue come blow your hornThe crows are in the cornThe morning sky is red and falling downLet your song of healing sparkA way out of this darkLead us to a higher and a holy ground
