the death posture

ladies and gentelman

the death posture

my father was a bank robber down in tarrahole

my father was a hmmmm well i don't know

and i've had these cold cuffs clamped around my wrists a hundred times

i guess that i'm an outlaw

i live and breathe crime

put on your faces

dress yourselves up

take your places

they're about to pull the curtain up

ladies and gentlemen

welcome to the show

i promise amazement

but it's more real than you know

personally i hate it and you watching me grow

but you paid and stood in line just to say you weren't told

my woman up and left me again for the last time

someone went and told her about this cheating heart of mine

and it's hard to hold it together every year around this time

i guess you call it lovesick

i just can't walk the line

put on your faces

dress yourselves up

take your places

they're about to pull the curtain up

ladies and gentlemen

o welcome to the show

i promise amazement

but it's more real than you know

personally i hate it and you watching me grow

but you paid and stood in line just to say you weren't told

i feel like when i'm dead

i'll still be striking pose

i feel like i'm in line but last in line to sell my soul

ladies and gentlemen!

ladies and gentlemen

o welcome to the show

it's chilling

but it's more real than you know

i can't fucking stand it

you watching me grow

but you paid and stood in line just to say you weren't told
