ON EBAY

Mr Kokoshka it just happened again -
they struck the museum like a hurricane.
All of our culture it's dead and it's gone.
From Babylon, baby, back to Babylon.

There's stuff you find along the way and stuff you leave behind,
and it all ends up as stuff that you can buy on eBay.

From Babylon back to Babylon.

In old Baghdad they're dusting off the antiques;
it's the fourteenth Guernica we've had this week.
I got twenty-five dollars for a Persian vase.
Hold the critique! I think I'll Go Large!

That stuff inside your houses and that stuff behind your eyes,
well it all ends up as stuff that you can buy on eBay.

From Babylon back to Babylon.

They're building a tower out of wrappers and cans,
and now we speak in a language that we all understand.
T,t,t,tongue-tied and starry-eyed...
It's the ancient history of old school ties.

There's stuff dressed up as truth and then there's stuff dressed up as lies,
and it all ends up as stuff that you can buy on eBay.

From Babylon back to Babylon.
