lyrics

hey John would you stop bugging me
i'm not gonna write a song about you
i'm not gonna lie and say that you cut yourself
say you cut yourself

hey John i've got too many things
on my mind to talk to you know
to hear your joke you stole from someone else
from someone else

hey, why don't you give me a break?
hey, i've got more to say

hey John if they're from India
they're not called Native Americans
they're just called Indians
they're called Indians
they're called Indians

hey John don't try to give me advice
if you've got no experience
and right now i know you don't
i know you don't
i know you don't

hey, why don't you give me a break?
hey, i've got more to say
