  • I was raised in Babylon

    Our priests taught us how to worship the sun

    Wo! Where did we go wrong?

    They used to call us civilised - but those days are gone

    I came to guard the Pharaoh

    Bring him wine and women

    Oh Lord! Where is he now?

    We used call him the highest - till the wave took him down

    I was born in the Holy Land

    They told me it was by God's command

    Wo! Where are the others from?

    I thought that we were the chosen - I must've been wrong

    I loved to march with the Sultan

    And his diamond turban

    Oh Lord! Then the world took hold

    Let go of the rope of God - for a handful of gold

    I used to serve the Empire

    On which the sun set, never

    Oh! Now times have turned

    We thought our white skins would save us - then we got burned
