Not even Uncle Sam©2025

verse 1
I haven't seen a hero , since martin Luther King
I haven't heard an angel sing , since I last heard Lennon sing
*
I count myself so lucky , to have my family by my side
Martin Luther was my hero , with a dream so full of pride
*
Congress was getting jumpy , boy they were running scared
The people in power then , they never said a word
*
As they watched the riots grow , they never gave a damn
Johnson cancelled off all his talks , and his meetings with Vietnam

chorus 1
So if you're looking for a new hero , Charlie Kirk could have been that man
They shot him with a sniper , because they wanted to silence the very man
So if you're looking for a new hero , Charlie Kirk could have been the very man

verse 2
Jessie Jackson was on that balcony , in Memphis Tennessee
Assassin James Earl Ray , later said it wasn’t me
*
I’m just a little pawn , In a bigger conspiracy
He died a lonely man , and they never set him free
*
So whether this is true , we will never know
Nobody seemed that bothered , not even Uncle Sam
*
When all these people were shot , Washington never gave a damn
Nobody seemed that bothered , not even Uncle Sam

chorus 2
So if you're looking for a new hero , Charlie Kirk could have been that man
They shot him with a sniper , because they wanted to silence the very man
So whether this is true , we will never know
Nobody seemed that bothered , not even Uncle Sam
When all these people were shot , Washington never gave a damn
Nobody seemed that bothered , not even Uncle Sam
