Tom Waits: God's away on business

I'd sell your heart to the junk-man baby
For a buck, for a buck!
If you're looking for someone to pull you out of that ditch
You're out of luck,
You're out of luck

The ship is sinking,
The ship is sinking,
The ship is sinking

There's a leak, there's a leak in the boiler room,
The poor, the lame, the blind
Who are the ones left in charge?
Killers, thieves and Lawyers

God's away, God's away, God's away
On business. Business.
God's away, God's away, God's away
On business. Business.

Digging up the dead with a shovel and a pick
It's a job, it's a job
Bloody moon rising with a plague and a flood
Join the mob, join the mob

It's all over,
It's all over,
It's all over

There's a leak, there's a leak, in the boiler room
The poor, the lame, the blind
Who are the ones that we kept in charge?
Killers, thieves, and lawyers

God's away, God's away, God's away
On business. Business.
God's away, God's away,
On business. Business.

[Instrumental Break]

Goddamn there's always such a big temptation
To be good, to be good
There's always free cheddar in a mousetrap, baby
It's a deal, it's a deal

God's away, God's away, God's away
On business. Business.
God's away, God's away, God's away
On business. Business.

I narrow my eyes like a coin slot baby,
Let her ring, let her ring

God's away, God's away,
God's away on business.
Business...
