Ladies and Gentleman, The Death Posture

My mother was a bank robber down in Terre Haute
My father was a hmmmm well I don't know
cnd 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
Hate 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
cnd 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!
O' welcome to the show I promise amazement-
But its more real than you know
Personally I hate it
Hate 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 titillating
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
