What Are The Lyrics For Belshazzar By Tennessee Three?
Well, the bible tells us about a man
Who ruled Babylon and all its land. Around the city, he built a wall And 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. 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. Well, the people feasted and drank their wine And praised the false gods of his time. All holy things they scorned and mocked, But suddenly all their mocking stopped. For on the wall, there appeared a hand, Nothin' 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. Well, no one around could understand What was written by the mystic hand. Belshazzar tried, but couldn't find A man who could give him peace of mind. But 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: "My friend, you're weighed in the balance and found wanting, Your kingdom is divided, it can't stand. You're weighed in the balance and found wanting, Your houses are built upon the sand." |
