Wet Work Songtext / Lyric

Something beautiful happened in the church house, but it didn't have to do with God

And something beautiful happened in the court house, but it didn't have to deal with the law

Something beautiful happened in the theater but it didn't have to do with the play

And all this beautiful is smuggled like a secret and it doesn't have to be that way



'Cos something beautiful gets shot down everyday

And nothing so obscene could ever dream to take its place



They kept us splashing in the wet work so they can cash in on the network

"Lets get connected while the text is corrected."

Love, it doesn't have to be that way






My brother, he got shot up in the greenhouse

He was researching the cure

And my sister, she got locked up in the jailhouse but she didn't even know what for

My cousin, he got strung up outside the courthouse

He was challenging the case

Something beautiful will always surround us but its just to easy to erase

And something beautiful gets shot down in every place



And something beautiful happened at the border

No!

And something beautiful happened on the corner

No!

Now nothing beautiful is happening anyway



They keep us splashing on the wet work so they can cash in on the network

"Soft opposition if you play your position."

Love, it doesn't have to be that way



One thousand clouds so peaceful vanished in a din of rhythms from a helicopter

Turn me up, dont turn me in



The sound was deafening it tore into the bedroom and it didn't have to do with God

We loved each other like a bomb loves a body and it didn't have to do with the law

I forgot the sheets, the heat, the gentle weaponry

I won't forget the look on your face

The loudest bomb is quieter than an eyelash against the fabric of your pillowcase
