Intro

well the bible tells us about a man, who ruled babylon and all its land

around the a city he built a wall, and declared that babylon would never fall

he had concubines and wives, he called his babylon paradise

upon his throne he drank and ate, but for belshazzar it was getting late

for he was weighed in the balance and found wanting

His kingdom was divided, couldn't stand

he was weighed in the balance and found wanting

His houses were built upon the sand

while the people feasted and drank their wine, and praised the false gods of his time

all holy things they scorned and mocked, when 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

for he was weighed in the balance and found wanting

His kingdom was divided, couldn't stand

he was weighed in the balance and found wanting

His houses were built upon the sand

and that's all just repeat this with the next verse and yer done

and when the key changes luthers guitar goes

last verse is:

no one around could understand what was written by the mystic hand

belshazzar tried but he couldn't find, a man who could give him peace of mind

then daniel, the prophet, a man of god, he saw the writing on the wall in blood

belshazzar asked him what'd it said, and daniel turned to the wall and read

and thats all.
