The Whip - Reckless Goodness Lyrics

Goodness came playing at recklessness' game
And Cain can question his name
Jonah's out fishin' for kraken
And Job's just destroyed

The snake's are all singing songs to maiden's
That Mary's just whistle away
Magdalene knows how deep it goes
When the way gets carried away
When the way gets carried away

Goodness came playing at recklessness' game
Said, ‽The grass will be greener when your dead”
And the colors all started to fade
And your life's recalling life

Christ does carnivorous carnival tricks
When everyone needs a little wine
But as long as the word is written in the dirt
It's bound to attract some grime

The good Lord stole Himself a week
His mama said, ‽Don't you dare”
He smote her and said, ‽Let the good in this be dead”
And the world shook from His head

Now the snakes have all returned to sing
And sneak around in key
They color this in by cluing us in
And I think I hear them say

Goodness came playing at recklessness' game
And the way got carried away
Goodness came playing at recklessness' game
And the way got carried away, way got carried away
