Yuh tink a suh it aguh guh all de wile
Yuh use wi every day, an' tell wi fi pray
An' tings will get well, but wi still inna hell

Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Yuh tink a suh it aguh guh all de wile
Year afta year, wi liv inna fear
De yout dem can’t get nuh work
Dem a tun to garbage truk
While yuh buil up yuh mansion
An' ave wi 'pon plantation
But mi a fiel slave
Mi nuh knoo how fi behave
Bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Yuh tink a suh it aguh guh all de wile
Yuh ghey de yout dope
Wile yuh pray to de pope
Fi ghey yuh more time
To commit more crime
But de same yout yuh dope
Aguh teck it fi joke
An' start a flame
Not even yuh can tame
Bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Yuh tink a suh it aguh guh all di wile
Dat wi a guh run
Everytime yuh point yuh gun
An' shoot one a wi carelessly
One a dem night
Wen yuh tink tings alrite
Wen yuh a get yuh desire
Yuh house a guh ketch fire
Bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Well me no think a suh it aguh guh all di wile
Da youth a guh rise
And realise
That the time is now
Babylon must bow
Tings must turn
Fire must burn
Our freedom must come
Bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
Bun dung Babylon
Wi aguh bun dung Babylon
