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 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 God's away, God's away God's away on business, business --- God's Away on Business - Tom Waits
