Love And Rockets - Rock And Roll Babylon Lyrics
All those Elvis recordsCircling the earthI think I've said four times overWere you present at the birth?Twinkle, twinkle, little starHow we wonder what you areSpin a web of dreamsAnd die for us on a cross of pillsYour not too dumb to seeA manager of schools of thought,Parasites who schemeI'm writing up the holocaustOf all those broken dreamsRock and Roll Babylon on the brinkGives a little slap come on, winkTo beckon the stars down from the skyRock and Roll Babylon on the brinkGives a little slap come on, winkTo beckon the stars down from the skyCan you hear me Lady DiamondIn your home from home?When your mommy calls you inAre you oblivious to the throne?That the farm's reserved for you,The effigy's in stoneWe loved you Lady DiamondThough we lost you in the zoneTightrope walkerTake all our chances for usTightrope walkerTake all our chances for usOh come on and be a tightrope walkerTake all our chances for usTightrope walkerTake all our chancesWho killed Johny MoondogWas the assassin you and me?To oversell the antidote,Or is it down to Jack and Jerry Lee?If you bite a chunk out of the moon,Will it help you see?
