This is serious business [Spoken]

I saw you with your suitcase
And your guitar in your hand
And your blue suede shoes were pointing
Toward the promised land

Some men are ruined by failure
Some by their success
Some men are ruined by the wiles of a
Wicked woman in a low cut dress

Those heading for destruction
are blind and they cannot see
And where they're gonna wake up
is a dangerous place to be

You will have to choose over and over
Or you'll sing the blues over and over
Are you gonna lose over and over
Or change the way you live

Falling down the scarlet staircase
Comes Jubal's last band
They can't see the cross
'cause they're too busy listening
To the clapping of one hand

I'll be waiting in Armageddon
When the lawyers come around
I'll be praying for the strength of Samson
To pull the courtroom down

Don't let anybody tell you that your soul
is already free
'Cause you'll die
and where you'll wake up
is a dangerous place to be

You will have to choose over and over
Or you'll sing the blues over and over
Are you gonna lose over and over
Or change the way you live

Like the chief of sinners among absolute beginners
Busy dying the daily death
Falling down in loneliness
but I rose up in peacefulness
And now I'm living from breath to breath

Well I am only human
Everybody knows my sin
They bring it up in conversation
Again and again

I may have had a broken spirit
But I was trying to do my best
And the ones who refuse to forgive me
should just stone me
So I can get some rest

You've gotta learn to believe
what you cannot see
Or where you're gonna wake up
is a dangerous place to be

You will have to choose over and over
Or you'll sing the blues over and over
Are you gonna lose over and over
Or change the way you live

Does he have to die over and over
Be crucified over and over
Will you live the lies over and over
Or change the way you live

Looking for direction, waiting for a sign
Standing still on the road I was on
I keep coming to the crossroads
and sometimes there's no warning saying
This way to Babylon

I'm looking for a sign to follow
and a road to travel on
Until I get a clear direction
I'm stranded in Babylon [x2]
