Well, the Bible tells us about a man   Who ruled Babylon and all its land   Around the city he built the 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 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      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   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      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 piece 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"
