American Shame lyrics

today I met JFK
I found him by the way
yes he looked a little strange
but he said he was o.k.
I asked him `bout the bullets
he said he didn`t bother
this shit is too long ago
you ask my brother

so I went back on the road
looking out for bob
I`ve been looking now for seven days
I think that it`s a flop
so I believe we won`t find out
from where the bullets came
and all that`s left is just a big heep

I saw him on the tv
they said he stabbed his wife
so they put him on the frontpage
and they ruined his life
no matter if he`s guilty
the matter is he`s black

a football hero movie star
and maybe he`s on crack
your private life on tv
get ready for the game

of american shame
that`s the name of the game
of american shame

get ready for american shame
american shame...
