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
