You can't pin that one on me I didn't do a goddamn thing, I was just standing there And a bunch of guys came up and started laying all this shit on me Now, what am I supposed to do? I'm an American, you can't touch me Did you know all nuns are forty-two and their eyes are blue? Did you know all table clothes are white and franc? Did you know women wear underpants?
