They say they remember exactly where
They were at the shooting of JFK
What they were doing to the very second
When the tragic news from the US beckoned
In my life there's a moment ingrained
Which caused me extreme emotional pain
As I recall precisely where
I was, when plunged into deep despair
Into the shop I'd nipped for fags
And the headline shrieked from the tabloid rag
My heart stopped, my mouth fell open
No Way! I thought, You must be jokin!
I forgot the fags and the fact I was late
As I read the words - surely a mistake?
I rushed into work looking for proof
(the rag I'd read not renowned for the truth)
But my fears were confirmed, no others to blame,
I was in shock - he has no shame!
Do you remember where you were
The day The Sun screamed "Mo Signs For Gers!"
Still hurts.
He's still a prick.
I'm still smokin.
