[Verse 1]
In a dark park in Emmerich
We took a break to rest our feet
Someone was playing the Backstreet Boys on the stereo
Too loud for us to sleep
The team was practicing in the stadium
And we saw a crow in the setting sun
Keeping watch and vaguely threatening
And flying in a wide circle
[Chorus]
But I won't believe we're out of there
Until the second plane's left
The captain of the football team
Fell down to her death
After clinging to the landing gear
Shouting, "I still love you"
[Verse 2]
On the riverbank in Emmerich
We stared out at the tourist ship
Doing donuts in the Rhine
And listening to bad schlager
Meanwhile you stole your mom some gasoline
Broke every stupid rule but you maintained quarantine
Inside the bar with broken windows
And wrote another sad email to me
