Analysis of Suspend The Babel
Suspend the label
Let's collocate
Come to the table
Let's legislate
Suspend the cable
Let's circulate
Vote for the stable
Let's percolate
Suspend the sable
Let's vitiate
Count on the able
Let's imitate
Suspend the Babel
Let's integrate
Speak of the fable
Let's reinstate
