Belshazzar

Well, the bible tells us about a man
 Who ruled Babylon and all its land
 Around the city
 Well, the bible tells us about a man
 Who ruled Babylon and all its land
 'Round the city, he built a wall
 Declared that Babylon would never fall
 He had concubines and wives
 He called his Babylon "Paradise"
 On his throne he drank and ate
 But for Belshazzar, it was gettin' late
 He was weighed in the balance and found wanting
 His kingdom was divided, it could not stand
 He was weighed in the balance and found wanting
 His houses were built upon the sand
 Well, the people feasted and drank their wine
 Praised the false gods of their time
 Holy things they scorned and mocked
 Suddenly all their mocking stopped
 For on the wall, there appeared a hand
 Nothing else, there was no man
 In blood, the hand began to write
 And Belshazzar couldn't hide his fright
 He was weighed in the balance and found wanting
 His kingdom was divided, it could not stand
 He was weighed in the balance and found wanting
 His houses were built upon the sand
 Well, no one around could understand
 Just what was written by this mystic hand
 Belshazzar tried, he couldn't find
 A man who could give him some peace of mind
 Daniel, the prophet, a man of God
 He saw the writing on the wall in blood
 Belshazzar asked him what it said
 And Daniel turned to the wall and read
 You are weighed in the balance and found wanting
 Your kingdom is divided, it cannot stand
 You are weighed in the balance and found wanting
 Your houses are built upon the sand
