Too much common sense will leave a bad taste in your mouth
So wash it out, wash it out, wash it out
Nothing ever follows all the lines that we lay down
Still it helps to think we've figured something out

So lay your plans by the sea
And when the tide comes in just let them bleed
Let 'em bleed

And wash it out, wash it out, wash it out
And wash it out, wash it out, wash it out
Wash it out, wash it out, wash it out
Wash it out
Just wash it right out

All the evidence collected in your own defense doesn't do you any good
And pinning all the blame on someone never made much sense
'Cause we're all convicts from a point of view

So lay your plans by the sea
And when the thieves come in just let them take
What they need

And wash it out, wash it out, wash it out
Wash it out, wash it out, wash it out
Wash it out, wash it out, wash it out
Wash it out
Just wash it right out
