That said I think she is trying to make a play on words as in she is saying in some part of the song "that's gossip" "talk it out" and then she says "Babylon" which she is also saying in a way that could be understood as "babble on". Babbling means to talk a lot of nonsense basically. Basically it's a song about gossiping, talking things out and babbling on I guess So she was just looking for a rhyme for “babble on”... not me thinking it could be a conceptual track like Judas or Venus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The song is horrible. I’m praying the full thing is so much better! But like how are people on Twitter praising it "My name is Dita, I'll be your Mistress tonight..."

Lyrically I'll wait and see but she was never a truly great lyricist anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viewing Jesus as a black man means having a new perspective in life and the song is about how she moved to downtown to start her career and how fashion helped her to see this new perspective Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
