Babylon Zoo Lyrics
Home
What is home?
Pack your possesions and leave us alone
Forget your colour and creed
Your sexuality embarrassed us all
Take off your Asian tag and hit the road
The word is why I need a God
I need a God to impress
Get off my soul
So many nerds have we found them all
Caffeine
Caffeine
I don't want to find a new home
Caffeine
Caffeine
C-A-F-F-E-I-N-E

Caffeine
They would prefer it if you lived off drugs
It's not a curable disease
Your sexuality confounded their world
Take off you Asian tag and hit the road
The word is why I need a God
I need a God to impress
Get off my soul
So many nerds have we found them all
C-A-F-F-E-I-N-E
Caffeine
Caffeine
I don't want to find a new home

C-A-F-F-E-I-N-E

What is home where is home what is
Home
I don't know why I need a God
I need a God to impress
Confused my soul
So many words do we need them all
C-A-F-F-E-I-N-E
Caffeine
Caffeine
I don't want to find a new home
Caffeine
Caffeine
C-A-F-F-E-I-N-E
Caffeine
Caffeine
I think I want to find a new home

Babylon Zoo was a British rock band of the mid-1990s from Wolverhampton, England, fronted by Jas Mann. They were best known for the song "Spaceman", which on its release on January 21, 1996, went straight to Number 1 on the UK singles chart, selling 418,000 copies in the first week of release - a record at the time.
Jas Mann had formerly been in an indie music band, called The Sandkings, which he left in 1992, because of musical differences.

Jas Mann had formerly been in an indie music band, called The Sandkings, which he left in 1992, because of musical differences.
Babylon Zoo was signed to Phonogram Records after A&R rep Clive Black heard their first three-track demo tape in May 1993. When Black moved to Warner Bros. Records in 1993, he took Mann's contract with him. An album had been prepared and sleeves for a single, "Fire Guided Light", were printed, but Babylon Zoo's debut was put on hold again when Black moved once more to EMI in 1995, where the band were signed on to a seven-album contract.
However, promotional copies of the song "Spaceman" had already been distributed, and chosen to tie in with the release of a new Levi's jeans TV advert. The single went straight to Number 1 on the UK singles chart and also went to Number 1 in the single charts in twenty-three countries.
An album entitled The Boy with the X-Ray Eyes was produced at Mann's New Atlantis Productions music/artwork/video centre. It was released in 1996 and included new-age tracks such as "Is Your Soul for Sale?" and "I'm Cracking Up I Need a Pill". It debuted at #6 on the album charts and reached the Top 20 in 17 countries, including Australia, New Zealand and Canada.
In 1997, Jas Mann was lampooned on the channel 4 TV series, Brass Eye.
Three years later, in 1999, a follow-up album was released entitled King Kong Groover, but Mann decided not to promote the album as he was not getting support from his label EMI since the departure of the man who had signed him, Clive Black. Mann subsequently decided to move to India and work for an aid agency.
Years active 1992–2000

I loved this album so much and this was my favourite song
Sarah Lund
This was one of the best tracks off that album. Sometimes the album was like a spelling lesson. C.A.F.F.E.I.N.E. and then there was A.R.T

Paris green, confused art and caffeine is such a great stretch of songs. The media did this album dirty. There a lot of gems here.
DjOffski
one thing is nostalgia for this album on your cassette walkman - - -
another thing is that "The Boy With The X-Ray Eyes" is not bad at all :)
And the second album King Kong Groover is in a world of its own for space psychodelia despite ravaging reviews and lack of commercial success ( lack of success probably stemming from the bad reviews ) good music is always good to hear, 20 years or 100 years on or whenever you do listen to it... :)
Alegna V Black
Totally agree. Here I am still loving and listening to BZ
Toma Cristian
I still don't understand why B Zoo wasn't a success band. Their songs are so much better than other's "proclaimed" artists. Yeah maybe the lyrics are not top notch, but hey, his music, overall, is awesome.
mrinal Subba
a lot of people aren't aware of this band, although spaceman got a lot of airplay on music channels.

Nobody wants to promote a guy singing about police racial brutality or animal cruelty. Notice that his top hits were quite neutral songs.
Petr Kvapil
long time ago i heard/read that jas was bit mad.... to be famous is not for everyone
heppolo
+Toma Cristian well, it wasn't mainstream or britpop at the time
