I Shot JFK Lyrics by Black Velvet Flag

Come Recline

1995

[Verse 1]
There was no conspiracy
It was all for anarchy
The President don't mean shit to me
One less Kennedy
[Chorus 1]
I Shot JFK
Pulled the trigger
Blew him away
I Shot JFK
Sorry, Jackie
It had to be this way
[Verse 2]
Imagine there're no hippies
You can do it if you try
The world don't need another naked guy
Someone had to die
[Chorus 2]
I shot John Lennon today
Pulled the trigger
And blew him away
I shot John Lennon today
Sorry, Yoko
It had to be this way
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Happiness is stupid
I'm anti-positive
I just ran out of reasons to live
Something had to give
[Chorus 3]
One more suicide
The world laughed
When I died
One more suicide
Sorry Mom
I hope you're satisfied
