Whore of Babylon, mother mine Crestfallen Madonna of the dragon heads You'd part your thighs for pleasures of the flesh So part them now to bear the god of death With weeping eyes gaze upon your son The noble spawn of your licentiousness Whose naked soles will scorch a smoldering road, and Serpentine hands coil around your neck
Whore of Babylon Whore of Babylon
Cast from the Tiber by your mother's brood The monster spoiled your gardens with his germ You let him brand me with (a) fool's moniker Then sour your flesh and leave us destitute And yet I rise Thanks to the gifts that you give to me Your venom's bite Your cunting ways and your treachery And your reward Oh mother mine who I've loved so much You're turned away With cold caress of the viper's touch
Whore of Babylon Whore of Babylon Whore of Babylon Whore of Babylon
Whore of Babylon, mother, I Behold the son corrupt with addled mind Let no perversion slither from your grasp Hypocrisy the venom of this asp With forked tongue you kiss your mother's brow And poisoned fingers slip beneath the cowl Puerile infatuations your downfall Deranged 'messiah' who is mocked by all So come assassin cleave to mother's breast Right hand embraces while the left holds death These weeping eyes gaze upon a son Who's murderous hands will see him, too, undone So send your poisons wash me of this curse And Charon's ferry, bear me as my hearse But as you push this knife into my chest Madness will soon see it drawn across your neck
