Lou Reed - The Gun lyrics
I dreamed I was the president of these United States I dreamed I replaced ignorance, stupidity and hate I dreamed the perfect union and a perfect law, undenied And most of all I dreamed I forgot the day John Kennedy died I dreamed that I could do the job, that others hadn't done I dreamed that I was uncorrupt and fair to everyone I dreamed I wasn't gross or base, a criminal on the take And most of all I dreamed I forgot the day John Kennedy died Oh the day John Kennedy died I remember where I was that day, I was upstate in a bar The team from the university was playing football on TV Then the screen want dead and the announcer said: ' There's been a tragedy There's are unconfirmed reports the president's been shot And he may be dead or dying.' Talking stopped, someone shouted: ' What?! ' I ran out to the street People were gathered everywhere saying: ' Did you hear what they said on TV? ' And then a guy in a Porsche with his radio Hit his born and told us the news He said: ' The president's dead, he was shot twice in the head In Dallas, and they don't know by whom. ' I dreamed I was the president of these United States I dreamed I was young and smart and it was not a waste I dreamed that there was a point to life and to the human race I dreamed that I could somehow comprehend that someone Shot him in the face Oh the day John Kennedy died |
