Queen Babylon
WINGER · Better Days Comin' 2014 · Track 02 of 11
Written by Donnie Purnell, Kip Winger, Reb Beach
Born from a bad seed, exiled on main street Ran off the rails of the roller coaster Landed in plain sight, she knew what boys liked She used her power like a holy roller
Down on her knees, taking gold for her dances She cast her spell and she, she took her chances Tasted the fruit in the land of forbidden She should be pardoned, sins forgiven
God save the queen, stop this execution She's such a long way from home God save queen babylon
She wore a jeweled crown, the lions knelt down Her fallen monarchs lined the floor of her castle Love was her business, she took no prisoners And now the righteous have all bound her in shackles
Lost in her dream of a life in the city In babylon girl, so young and pretty Traded her soul for their lust and desire Tied at the stake, her feet to the fire
God save the queen, stop this execution She's just an american girl God save queen babylon
Down on her knees, as she pleads to the jury Oh loyal, subjects, lord have mercy
God save the queen, stop this execution She's such a long way from home Save the queen, stop this revolution She's just an american girl God save queen babylon
