The dirty cooks
Twitch in the kitchen
Noddin’ off and burnin’ the dishes
They all got the same condition
A leader comes out in the yard
And the trailer parks between the fires
And no one will ever suspect a thing
Like a secret in a safe thrown off a bridge into a lake without a harbor
I sank your troubles deep and let ‘em sleep under the waves on the water
I fell asleep
Watchin’ the clock spin
Heavy hands
With clumsy precision
Out of breath
All night
And we didn’t have much of a warnin’
All you saw were the cop cars swarmin’
All around the old block
Like a secret in a safe thrown off a bridge into a lake without a harbor
To sink your troubles deep and let ‘em sleep under the waves on the water
