The Lyrics

This parody is not meant to be humorous, but is meant to explore a historical hypothesis. The opinions expressed in this parody do not neccessarily reflect those of the author.
Choose Kennedy during the cold war
Pigs of Bay, with Castro, no rapport
Ruskie glee that they'd made our plight
Won't be denied, with Cuba they incite
Big spy dish, 'cus we'd overflown
Pray that they take their big missiles home
Pissed off Russia, made great strides
USA, in JFK we've pride

Shrewd Kennedy now, Shrewd Kennedy now
Shrewd Kennedy now, Shrewd Kennedy now

Then two short months before '64
Gunshot sound, now Jack's not here no more
'Mid the tears, heard Cronkite say
Air Force One, we swore in LBJ
Amidst alarm and weeping is stealth
There's something wrong now, a spate of rumours squelched
It spiked my fears, noble Camelot's end
Cover-ups, concealing again:

Screwed Kennedy now, Screwed Kennedy now
Screwed Kennedy now, Screwed Kennedy now

Lee Harvey's nabbed, and they took him away
Such lax security...
Worth squat that boo-boo, allowed Har-vey
Be shot by Jack Ruby

Fair?

(See-Yai-Yay)
Screwed Kennedy now, Screwed Kennedy now
Screwed Kennedy now, Screwed Kennedy now

(Grassy Knoll)
John F was shot down

(Ahhhhh... Dea-ley)
Who done it? Who done it?

(Ahhhhh...Warren..)
How was it al-lowed?

(Poool-or-oids, where did they go...?)
