lyrics

A patriot, a catholic
And both their families walk into a bar
You be the floor, I'll be the wall
We'll drink our fill and sing our fathers' songs

Remember we saw, just the other night
A beautiful bird who couldn't fly
Since the six-pack rings embraced her in the lake

You can admit that it wasn't fair
But you're not the one who placed it there
There's a criminal in the past who got away

Lorelei curses me late at night
Pulling her strings from the afterlife
I'm a marionettist choosing where she'll go

She'll never know all my love for her
Just that I left and left the curse
There's a criminal in her past who got away
I'm a criminal in her past who got away
