Song Lyrics

Daddy's in the hallway
Hanging pictures on the wall
And Mama's in the kitchen
Making casseroles for all

My brother came home yesterday
From somewhere far away
He doesn't look like I remember
As he stares off into space

He must've seen some ugly things
He just can't seem to say

[Chorus]
God bless this mess
God bless this mess
God bless this mess

Got a job in town
Selling insurance on the phone
With Robert and Teresa
And two con men from back home

Everyone I call up doesn't have the time to chat
Everybody is so busy doing this and doing that
Something has gone missing

And it makes me kinda sad, oh

[Chorus]

Heard about the day
That two skyscrapers came down
Firemen, policemen
People came from all around

The smoke covered the city
And the body count did rise
The president spoke words of comfort
With tears in his eyes

Then he led us as a nation
Into a war all based on lies, oh

[Chorus]

God bless this mess.
