Bye Bye Babylon Songtext
von Bryan Scary

In the gallery of the wunderkind
Sits the candy girl trying to learn her lines
Needs another way to Nirvana and soon
Caught the latest craze, wore a painted daze
All the stars came out to her twist and pout
But a perfect pitch always goes out of tune

This is a message from Dr. Blue
"Won′t you put me in and take apart the blues in you?"
Whoa-whoa (get yourself turned on)
Whoa-whoa (it's a Babylon), so they say

Bye-bye Babylon, my friend
You were just another tramline to the end
See you later, alligator
Again and again ′til the train comes 'round the bend
Bye-bye Babylon, today
I got a feeling that I simply got to get away
さよなら, old euphoria
Gonna fill my soul with the morning glory haze
Bye-bye-bye-bye-bye-bye-bye (whoo)


Cosmic apathy, anesthetic eyes
Not the kind of thing we can get behind
And a blushing veil doesn't look so divine
′Cause the bittersweet will only rot your teeth
And a microscope is a magazine
You can shoot a star but you can′t make it shine

Ours is the shoulder to listen to
We've been waiting in the wings to get a message through
Whoa-whoa (get yourself turned on)
Whoa-whoa (it′s a Babylon), so they say

Bye-bye Babylon, my friend
You were just another tramline to the end
See you later, alligator
Again and again 'til the train comes ′round the bend
Bye-bye Babylon, today
I got a feeling that I simply got to get away
さよなら, old euphoria
Gonna fill my soul with the morning glory haze
Bye-bye-bye-bye-bye-bye


You made a devil deal and signed the papers, now you're
Playing cards with the money makers
But everybody′s such a lady hater
Oh, you're gonna show them all
You took the bait and let them tow the aura, and now you're
Dancing dumb with the dinosaur-a
Down at the funhouse playing old Pandora
Ya bang on the drunken drum

Bye-bye Babylon, my friend
You were just another tramline to the end
See you later, alligator
Again and again ′til the train comes ′round the bend
Bye-bye Babylon, today
I got a feeling that I simply got to get away
さよなら, old euphoria
Gonna fill my soul with the morning glory haze
