Babylonian Harlot

Once there was a lady
who loved the whole wide world.
Oh yes! She loved her babies.
She loved all boys and girls.

The lady knew a woman
who murdered her own kin.
But yet she told this woman,
"I want to be your friend".

"I do condemn what you have done.
It makes me shed a tear,
But truly, I love everyone.
I will not interfere."

"Then come into my parlor,
like the spider and the fly.
I'll teach your kids to wallow
in the corner of my sty.

We'll all be one big family
as soon as we arrange
to rid of those who won't agree
to take part in this change."

The woman taught the lady
to murder one by one.
The lady thought that maybe
when this vile task was done...

Love would finally rule the world;
Sweet peace forevermore;
with her banner there unfurled
she'd be at Heaven's door.

But oh, the bloody bitterness.
She watched her children die!
The lady wanted happiness...
by pie up in the sky!
