Lyrics:
She took my father from my life oh
Took my sister and brothers oh
I watched her torturing my child
Feeble I was then but now I'm grown
Fire on babylon
Oh yes a change has come
Fire on babylon
Fire
Fire
Fire
She's taken everything I liked
She's taken every lover oh
And all along she gave me lies
Just to make me think I loved her
Fire on babylon
Oh yes a change has come
Look what she did to her son
Fire
Fire
Fire on
Life's backwards
Life's backwards
People turn around
The house is burned
The house is burned
The children are gone
Fire
Fire
Fire on babylon
Oh yes a change has come
Fire on babylon
Fire
Fire, oh
Fire, oh
Fire on babylon
Oh yes a change has come
Look what she did to her son
Look what she did to her son
Fire, haha
Fire, haha
Fire
Fire
Fire, aha
Fire on babylon
Fire on babylon

Lyrics:
Think about my little girl
Her yellow skin and her dark curls
And how her fathers heart was frozen
I spoke to her and I said
You wont regret
The mother you have chosen
I lied, wheres she tonight?
Ive left him, now were apart
And I think about his cruel heart
And how his lies have left mine broken
To think that I spoke to him then I said
She wont regret
The father she has chosen
I lied, wheres he tonight?
You were precious to me
After all, I called you into being
I wanted you to know
Yes, you were precious to me
She has chosen
And I miss my little boy
I strayed away, so far away
And I need him tonight
To feel his hands around my face
His loving eyes, his happy face
Would be so right
Once I sat in my husbands car
Him in my arms, woke up and saw me crying
My heart wouldnt work
And this he did, my special child
He touched my face with his hand and smiled
Oh boy, everythings alright
Dont cry, everythings alright
Dont cry, Jakess here tonight
Dont hide, Jakes here alive")

Lyrics:
Tell her try your best just to make it quick
Come and tend to the sick
Cause there must be something he can do
This heart is broken in two
Tell him its a case of emergency
Theres a patient by the name of Sineady
Night nurse
Only you alone can quench this ere thirst
My night nurse
Oh, the pain its getting worse
I dont wanna see no doc
I need attendence from my nurse around the clock
Cause theres no prescription for me
Hes the one, the only remedy
Night nurse
Only you alone can quench this ere thirst
My night nurse
Oh, the pain its getting worse
I dont wanna see no doc
I need attendence from my nurse around the clock
Cause theres no prescription for me
Hes the one, the only remedy
chorus
Night nurse
Only you alone can quench this ere thirst
My night nurse
Oh, the pain its getting worse
Night nurse
Only you alone can quench this ere thirst
My night nurse
Oh, the pain its getting worse
I hurt my love
Night nurse")

Lyrics:
Im full of good intentions
Like I never was before
Its too late for prevention
But I dont think its too late for the cure
So you call in your minions
And see what you can find
Nighttime or morning
These hands are sticky, but I dont mind
Why must you always be around?
Why cant you just leave it be?
Its done nothing so far but destroy my life
You cause as much sorrow dead
As you did when you were alive
I never said I was tough
That was everyone else
So youre a fool to attack me
For the image that you built yourself
Just sounds more vicious
Than I actually meaned
I really am soft, yes
Im tender and sweet
Why must you always be around? (La-la-la-la)
Why cant you just leave it be?
Youve done nothing so far, but destroy my life
You cause as much sorrow dead
As you did when you were alive
Why must you always ask me? (La-la-la-la)
Why cant you just leave me be?
Youve done nothing so far, but destroy my life
You cause as much sorrow dead
As you did when you were alive")

Lyrics:
Each of these my three babies
I will carry with me for myself
I ask no one else will be
Mother to these three
And of course Im like a wild horse
But theres no other way I could be
Water and feed are not tools that I need
For the thing that Ive chosen to be
In my soul
My blood and my bones
I have wrapped your cold bodies around me
The face on you
The smell of you
Will always be with me
Each of these my three babies
I was not willing to leave
Though I tried, I blasphemed and denied
I know they will be returned to me
Each of these my babies
Have brought you closer to me
No longer mad like a horse
Im still wild but not lost
From the thing that Ive chosen to be
And its cause youve thrilled me
Silenced me, stilled me
Proved things I never believed
The face on you
The smell of you
Will always be with me
Each of these, my three babies
I will carry with me for myself
I ask no one else will be
Mother to these three")
