Strasbourg

When I said I loved you still
We were floating down the Ill
In a sentimental raft of our creation
We still had our lives in tow
We had nowhere left to go
So we set our sights and sailed for the Alsatian

That river led us straight
Into the dancing plague
That monkey fell from heaven
And by the time we saw
That city wouldn't thaw
We said goodbye

So we packed our stuff and ran
Through a sea of shitty bands
And our so-called friends went mute to our condition
We never saw them after that
We were never going back
’Til we made that little stop on our vacation

That river turned to black
And red from all the hacking
That monkey died in heaven
And when we saw his face
Through the hail of lead and flame
We said goodbye

Strasbourg is fading away
My passport is spreading the plague

You two can take your dancing plague
And your stinking choucroute to the lake
Drown

Strasbourg is fading away (On the plane)
My passport is spreading the plague
Strasbourg is fading away (In your grave)
My passport is spreading the plague
