Elton John - Tower of Babel

Snow,

Cement,

And ivory young towers,

Someone called us Babylon

Those hungry hunters

Tracking down the hours.

But where were all your shoulders when we cried?

Were the darlings on the sideline

Dreaming up such cherished lies,

To whisper in your ear before you die.

It's party time for the guys in the tower of Babel.

Sodom meet Gomorrah,

Cain meet Abel.

Have a ball y'all

See the letches crawl

With the call girls under the table.

Watch them dig their graves,

`Cause Jesus don't save the guys

In the tower of Babel

No, no, no

Junk,

Angel,

This closet's always stacked.

The dealers in the basement

Filling your prescription,

For a brand new heart attack.

But where were all your shoulders when we cried?

Were the doctors in attendance

Saying how they felt so sick inside?

Or was it just the scalpel blade that lied?
