W.A.S.P. - Babylon\'s Burning lyrics

rate me

Listen close to hooves you hear

Are thunders coming dread

John the Revelator's dream

Had seen a terror vision

Of the spirit led

With wrath to reign

And with slaves to flame

They kneeled and sealed a kiss

Plagues and pain and fiery rain

And blaspheme on his lips

Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning

Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals

A pale rider and his horses sing

Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning

Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast

Bears the mark of Babylon to be

Arising with the beast a sea of men

A bloody moon of red

A whore of Babylon to bleed the seed

And make 'em take the mark upon their heads

They bowed and kneeled a mark to seal

Their souls unto a kiss

With fire and flames and with

Souls to claim

And rise from the abyss

Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning

Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals

A pale rider and his horses sing

Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning

Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast

Bears the mark of Babylon to be

(guitar solo)

And I stood upon the sand of the sea

And saw a beast rise out of the sea

Having ten horns and seven heads

Ten crowns upon his head

Who is like unto the beast?

Given his mouth great things to speak

If any man has an ear

Let him hear, let him hear

Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning

Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals

A pale rider and his horses sing

Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning

Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast

Bears the mark of Babylon to be

Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning

Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals

A pale rider and his horses sing
