Working at the Ministry - Slapp Happy

Every morning came in several pieces

Assembled for the present that I never knew

«American Friend» was playing on the video

A message just for you

Mud and water, mud and water

As far as the eye can see

We’ve got a thousand souls of fallen angels

Working at the ministry

And we’ve got Mother Marys

That light up after midnight

And murder in the first degree

And changes only they can remember

And people that don’t want to be… just

Mud and water, mud and water

As far as the eye can see

We’ve got a thousand souls of fallen angels

Working at the ministry

Is it me or your imagination

This Unholy River flowing through my door

We’ve got talent in failure and masqueraders

Gathered in the parliament of misery

And cover, baby!

from here to Australia

There for the good of you and me

Mud and water, mud and water

As far as the eye can see

We’ve got a thousand souls of fallen angels

Working at the ministry
