LYRICS
Id sell your heart to the junkman baby
For a buck, for a buck
If youre looking for someone to pull you
out of that ditch
Youre out of luck, youre out of luck
The ship is sinking
The ship is sinking
The ship is sinking
Theres leak, theres 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
Gods Away, Gods away
Gods away on Business. Business.
Gods Away, Gods Away
Gods Away on Business. Business.
Digging up the dead with a shovel and a pick
Its a job, its a job
Bloody moon rising with a plague and a flood
Join the mob, join the mob
Its all over, Its all over, Its all over
Theres a leak, theres 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
Gods away, Gods away, Gods away
On Business. Business.
Gods away, Gods away, Gods away
On Business.
Goddamn theres always such a big temptation
To be good, To be good
Theres always free cheddar in a mousetrap, baby
Its a deal, its a deal
Gods away, Gods away, Gods away
On Business. Business.
I narrow my eyes like a coin slot baby,
Let her ring, let her ring
Gods Away, Gods Away
Gods Away on Business.
Business...
