The Death Posture

My other 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 its 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 its 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!
 welcome to the show I promise amazement-
 but its 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!
 Welcome to the show
 It's chilling
 but its 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
