So the story goes, that he captured many cities
but they say he had a lonliness that lingered all around
and when he tore the temple down in Jerusalem
he never made a sound or screamed for the winning side
And they say he built his gardens for his queen to make her smile
to remind her of her homeland though she felt a million miles away
from everything that she once loved
while he was buliding a whole world for himself
The destroyer of all nations, would never find true love
For the golden king of babalon was humbled from above.
They called him Nebucouldneverchadnezzer
Some say he lost his mind when his pride did overtake him
and his lord and savior punished him and took away his sanity
he crawled upon all fours for seven lonely years
living only with the animals he'd slain.
And when he came back down he was brought back to a lowly state
he gave thanks to the heavens, and he gave praise to the Holy One
He never held his head up quite so high again
and he never was the same as before
The destroyer of all nations, would never find true love
For the golden king of Babalon was humbled from above
They called him Nebucouldneverchadnezzer
