lyrics

i went down to babylon to catch a train but
then they struck me down with thunderbolts and rain
i’m out of season, out of season
out of luck and out of season

and i went down to babylon to scrawl my names on
all the walls of buildings, then they sent me home in chains
i’m breathing, out of season
out of mind and out of season

and in thirty days’ time the sun will eat itself
nothing left behind but wine-eyed sky

and i went down to babylon to watch the great men
argue on the front lawns till the night was late then
watch them leaving, out of season
out of time and out of season

and i went down to babylon to watch the sparrows
flitter through the night and slip between the arrows
shot by heathens out of season
out of touch and out of season

and in thirty days' time the sun will eat itself
and all that’s left behind is wine-eyed sky
