"American Babylon" lyrics

Oh, yeah!

In the dream in motion
In the hate of the city
The real emotion
It's a cry but no pity
All the fools start to shuffle
Grab a bag, toss and turn and hustle
Take a ride on the power trip train
Wanna fly but the fear, it still remains
Yeah, yeah

(American)
American Babylon
(America)
Babbling on and on, yeah

Well it's one for the money
And it's two for the money
So you better take all
While the wolf takes charge
It's like a neon nightmare
With no face in the mirror
So I take a look behind me
But the fear, it still remains
Yeah, yeah

(American)
American Babylon and on
(America)
Babbling on and on and on

(American)
Oh!
(Babylon)

On and on and on and on

Just look around, look around
It's like a neon nightmare
Bringing your soul to bear, oh
With one foot on the moon
And the other down your throat

Ow!

(American)
American Babylon and on
(America)
Babbling on and on and on
Oh!

Keep on talking
Nobody listens
(American)
Keep on talking
On and on and on
Just look around and around
(American)
Just look around and around, yeah
(American)
With no face in the mirror
There's no face in the mirror
(American)
Oh!
