lyrics

Business in Babylon II
By Lonnie Flemmer
Reprobate/SESAC

Grab a meal on the run, a weiner in a bun
You're driving way too fast
To a dead-end job in the middle of hell
Wondering how long it can last

The owner of the place has a plastic face
He's a hundred twenty years old
And he says what you see here stays here boy
You best do what you're told
You best do what you're told

He's got young boy's blood coarsing through his veins
He used to change it twice a year
Now its every 45 days, he knows the end is near
He knows the end is near

Thats how we do business here in Babylon
Thats how we do business here in Babylon
Thats how we do business here in Babylon (Chorus)
It ain't hard
If you ain't got a soul
I wish they'd leave me alone

He's got young boy's blood coarsing through his veins
He used to change it twice a year
Now its every 21 days, he knows the end is near
He knows the end is near

Then he winds up dead
And they slice his head
Scoop out his brain
Upload it to an AI 39K
He's back on-line again
He's back on-line again

Chorus
