Tom Waits "God's Away on Business" Lyrics:

I'd sell your heart to the junkman, 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



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 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
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



And 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, ha



Goddamn there's always such a big temptation

To be good, to be good
There's always free cheddar in the 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
God's away, God's away
God's away on business, business

The planes should have went into the Enron Towers but that would have been too obvious
