Lyrics: Asian Dub Foundation. Enemy of the Enemy.

Open up, open up, open up
Open up
Enemy, enemy, enemy
Enemy, enemy

Bring this

Enemy of the enemy, who?
Enemy of the enemy, what?
Enemy of the enemy, who?
Enemy of the enemy, what?

Enemy of the enemy, who?
Enemy of the enemy, what?
Enemy of the enemy
Me, me

Babylon 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 sweat

Is 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 job

It was the enemy of the enemy
The enemy of the enemy
He's a friend
Till he's the enemy again

It was the enemy of the enemy
The enemy of the enemy
He's a friend
Till he's the enemy again

Enemy of the enemy, who?
Enemy of the enemy, what?
Enemy of the enemy, who?
Enemy of the enemy, what?

Enemy of the enemy, who?
Enemy of the enemy, what?
Enemy of the enemy
Me, me

Rig a dig

Starin' 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 place

Where 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
You'd have to decide, you'd have to decide

Who's the enemy of the enemy
The enemy of the enemy
He's a friend
Till he's the enemy again

Who's the enemy of the enemy
The enemy of the enemy
He's a friend
Till he's the enemy again

Choose the enemy, know the enemy
Love the enemy, feed the enemy
Sleep with the enemy, arm the enemy
Sell the enemy, bomb the enemy

Choose the enemy, know the enemy
Love the enemy, feed the enemy
Sleep with the enemy, arm the enemy
Sell the enemy, bomb the enemy

Keep your friends close
But keep your enemies closer
Closer, closer, closer

Keep your friends close
But keep your enemies closer
Closer, closer, closer

This is easy, uh, they got a turban
We don't have to know
What's going on in the turban
Just proceed with the story

Choose the enemy, know the enemy
Love the enemy, feed the enemy
Sleep with the enemy, arm the enemy
Sell the enemy, bomb the enemy

Choose the enemy, know the enemy
Love the enemy, feed the enemy
Sleep with the enemy, arm the enemy
Sell the enemy, bomb the enemy

Keep your friends close
But keep your enemies closer
Closer, closer, closer

Keep your friends close
But keep your enemies closer
Closer, closer, closer

It was the enemy of the enemy
The enemy of the enemy
He's a friend
Till he's the enemy again

It was the enemy of the enemy
The enemy of the enemy
He's a friend
Till he's the enemy again

Choose the enemy, know the enemy
Love the enemy, feed the enemy
Sleep with the enemy, arm the enemy
Sell the enemy, bomb the enemy

Choose the enemy, know the enemy
Love the enemy, feed the enemy
Sleep with the enemy, arm the enemy
Sell the enemy, bomb the enemy
