WASP – Babylon’s Burning
Are thunders coming dread
John the Revelator’s dream
Had seen a terror vision
Of the spirit led
With wrath to reign
And with slaves to flame
They kneeled and sealed a kiss
Plagues and pain and fiery rain
And blaspheme on his lips
Babylon’s a-burning, Babylon’s a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
A pale rider and his horses sing
Babylon’s a-burning, Babylon’s a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast
Bears the mark of Babylon to be
Arising with the beast a sea of men
A bloody moon of red
A whore of Babylon to bleed the seed
And make ‘em take the mark upon their heads
They bowed and kneeled a mark to seal
Their souls unto a kiss
With fire and flames and with
Souls to claim
And rise from the abyss
[Revelation 13]
And I stood upon the sand of the sea
And saw a beast rise out of the sea
Having ten horns and seven heads
Ten crowns upon his head
Who is like unto the beast?
Given his mouth great things to speak
If any man has an ear
Let him hear, let him hear

La última entrega discográfica de Blackie Lawless y sus WASP llevó por título el de ‘Babylon’. WASP se acercaron a la mítica Babilonia y en una de sus composiciones se abordó su caída. Más bien, su incendio, al más puro estilo romano. Y, claro, no nos extraña nada de que hablen de fuego y destrucción ya que el disco gira entorno a la acción de Los Cuatro Jinetes de la Apocalipsis. Por otra parte, un tema muy en la línea de Blackie Lawless.
