Babilonia
Morodo
Babylon
Caught by Babylonian influence,
they come with their ironic vision of biblical life,
I prefer practice over theory
about the daily facts of life with logic
while a magic hand is needed in Africa,
there they have less of everything but more of nothing,
and in Spain what? in Spain it doesn't matter
because they have nothing to negotiate with Africa,
they are automatons in the city like robots
sending people, workday,
to get paid at the end of the month, pay all debts
and start over and thus enjoy your lack of freedom,
you'll be a criminal for smoking ganja,
and find yourself a girlfriend who knows how to cook and iron
and is good at guiding children,
because what does it matter what you think
if life is already programmed, prepared, designed...
receive slaps, that's the plan.....
I'm livin' in Babylon
(Chorus)
So we live in Babylon,
buy yourself a life and never stop paying, la, la,
so we live in Babylon
there's nothing better than the big city, (again)
so we live in Babylon
reserve yours and screw everything else,
so we live in Babylon
pull down your pants, everything is about to begin.
Here comes the law and here comes the judge and here comes everything you don't want,
here in Babylon, things are not as you believe but as you see,
resist and defend yourself, let nothing drive you crazy,
fight against the system man with the microphone check, again!
so we live in Babylon we are controlled and that's the reality,
they want to silence me but they won't succeed,
I follow my path with the Selassiean
the Lion of Judah take care of you from there
they can't defeat me and I owe it to the ganja,
lion, human, flee, the Rastaman
along with the OZ I come to brighten your plan,
with the forbidden plant I fight like a sword,
their rules don't affect me although not their words,
I disappear abracadabra
I fly with the wings that ganja gives me,
I fight against the darkness and my soul is saved,
I endure in the party until dawn arrives,
and if your alarm goes off, stay calm,
the rules are always set by the one in charge,
you rule your life, don't be a suicide,
don't follow the current like the majority does,
(in Babylon) it's irony,
a perfect world where there's no place for wisdom
(Chorus)
So we live in Babylon,
buy yourself a life and never stop paying, la, la,
so we live in Babylon
there's nothing better than the big city, again...
so we live in Babylon
reserve yours and screw everything else,
so we live in Babylon...
