The Cat Burglar's Deathbed Confession

from Vector 23 by Joseph Airport

/

lyrics

Duane O Duane
All you’ve brought me is shame
Come here Josephine
I’ve got something to tell you
I’m Dan Cooper
The hijacker is me

178 in the bucket
Maybe 173
Let it die with me

Yes I’m Dan Cooper
My name was never D.B.
Josephine O Josephine
I’m an ex-con and a con man
Arrested in El Paso for burglary
But I had a smooth way with old ladies
Met J. E. Roy in Jefferson City

But I damn sure never met
Jack Ruby
Let it fucking die with me

Duane O Duane
All you brought me is shame
Come here Josephine

There’s 178 in the bucket
Maybe 173
Let it die with me

"... An eccentric, zany little album whose catchy tunes and peculiar lyrics can put a grin on your face." —The Fire Note
