Hej, tak, patrz na tego człowieka, babilon jest do bani jak wampir
To jest krew, krew to krew, krew człowieka!
Jeśli życie było czymś, co można kupić za pieniądze
Bogaci powinni żyć, a biedni umrzeć
Jeśli życie było czymś, co można kupić za pieniądze
Bogaci powinni żyć, a biedni umrzeć
Wszędzie, gdzie idę, słyszę płacz biednego człowieka
Mówią mi, że ceny rosną tak wysoko
Wszędzie, gdzie ludzie idą, ludzie się bawią
Powiedz mi, że kryzys jest dla wszystkich szokujący
Bogacz i biedak to żebrak, złodziej
Adaptacja lwa i wódz indyjski
Bogacz i biedak to żebrak, złodziej
Adaptacja lwa i wódz indyjski
Nie mogę tego znieść
Nie nie nie
Nie mogę tego znieść
Nie nie nie
Nie mogę tego znieść
Nie nie nie
Nie mogę tego znieść
Nie ma mowy
Babilon to wampir, wampiryczny bandyta
Ssie twoją krew jak komar
Babilon to wampir, wampiryczny bandyta
Musisz ich zniszczyć, aby ocalić swą krew
Babilon to wampir, wampiryczny bandyta
Ssie twoją krew jak komar
Babilon to wampir, wampiryczny bandyta
Musisz ich zniszczyć, aby ocalić swą krew
Przebiegły jak pająk z swoim jadem
Szybki jak kobra z swoją trucizną
Za każdym razem musisz być gotowy na szok
Niebezpieczeństwo dla mnie to atak krwawego rekina.
Silny jak anakonda z jej wielkością
Szybki jak kobra, bez stresu
Za każdym razem musisz być gotowy na szok
Niebezpieczeństwo dla mnie to atak krwawego rekina.
Zniszczyć babilon za każdym razem gdy szukacie
Wesołego Jah Jah wszyscy możecie
Zniszczyć babilon za każdym razem gdy szukacie
Wolności i pokoju i świętego królestwa Jah Jah
Babilon to wampir, wampiryczny bandyta
