Enemy of the enemy
Me, meBabylon is really burning this time
My chick is coming home to roost on a Soviet airline
Climbing on the subway, burning eyes spinning head
Walking through the station, breaking into a cold sweatIs the ticking time bomb in my head or your bag
Have you been snorting white lines with president, gas
Crawling from the wreckage of my tumblin' tower block
Someone else had to finish the jobIt was the enemy of the enemy
The enemy of the enemy
He's a friend
Till he's the enemy againIt was the enemy of the enemy

Enemy of the enemy
Me, meRig a digStarin' out the window at 50,000 feet
At the mercy of the skies, no escape velocity
And as your eyes meet my skin, see the terror on your face
Do you want it to stop, put yourself in their placeWhere what your life is worth depends on where you live
Too many generations down the line to forgive
If all you knew was total war from every side
