We wanted it to have some kind of ripple or deformation. In that case, what we see here would not be sufficient because it does not have enough polygon detail. There aren't enough points on the surface in order to create a smooth deformation. So let me illustrate, I'll select that object, and go to the Modifier Panel and let's add a deformer which is called noise, and we'll add it above the Bevel.
