Once we had one language We could communicate But after our big mistake Things became so bad
We wanted to get to heaven We almost reached our aim But than appeard a problem We didn't know whom to blame
We made the bricks And gathered round The place we choose before We worked so hard We didn't sleep We wanted to build more
Chorus: Every word has its' place in the Tower of Babel Every word is a brick in the Tower of Babel
The Lord came down to check what's up And saw us building the tower He didn't like it as we did And asked to make it lower
But we went on creating We put bricks one by one And after many days and nights The work was almost done
We were so proud We couldn't wait To climb up to the sky But our dreams Have not come true And we will tell you why
Chorus:
The sounds of speech around us Became a mess at once You ask your friends: "Give me the tools" And they begin to dance
You hear Italian, English, French A million words that you don't know It's hard, it's strange, you can't stand more You want to leave this place, to go
We left the town We went away As far as we could go The tower stayed The tower died It fell to pieces slow
Chorus:
We didn't build the tower But we still have a chance It will grow up like flower It will become our fence
You may think it's impossible But we are all unique Each of us will take a part DON'T FORGET TO PUT YOUR BRICK!
