Mystery Babylon by The Swirling Eddies Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She's got a giant head
We've got the hat to fit it
She'll take us all to bed
What she wants, she can get it

[Chorus 1]
Have you heard about the girl?
The prettiest in the world
Have you heard about the girl
Named Mystery Babylon?

[Verse 2]
She wears her gold and pearls
And sits upon the water
And every boy and girl
Is drinking her elixir

[Chorus 2]
Have you heard about the girl?
The wonder of the world
Everybody wants a date
With Mystery Babylon
[Bridge]
In scarlet, fine raiment
Glass of wine held high
The harlot seeks payment
So lay us down to die

[Verse 2]
There's fear now in her eyes
I guess she knows what's coming
They'll say she once was wise
So beautiful, so cunning

[Chorus 1]
Have you heard about the girl?
The prettiest in the world
Have you heard about the girl
Named Mystery Babylon?
Everybody wants a date
With Mystery Babylon
With Mystery Babylon
With Mystery Babylon
With Mystery Babylon
