Old King Belshazzar demanded
"What's this on the wall?"
On the wall
Red-handed
So Daniel, he said
The words as he read
As well as he could
And he understood
And the king don't lie
There's a king on high, on high
And the king don't lie
What don't kill you
Almost killed you
What don't fill you
Pains you
Drains you
The plague of our year
The Black Death is here
Your silence a stain
The marking of Cain
There's a king on high
And the king don't lie
There's a king on high, on high
And the king don't lie
There's a flood of flame
And it calls your name
There's a king on high
And the king don't lie
