Glass Houses

By John Cougar Mellencamp

There's a simple man with no common sense,
Livin' in his own padded, plush, little world,
Shoulda negotiated with Osama, even with 3,000 dead,
Thinks because he's a celebrity his voice should be heard.
So far gone, believes after Pearl Harbor we shouldn't have attacked Japan,
America says to him: 'hey John, just stick to singing about Jack and Diane.'

Chorus:
Oh but ain't that a Liberal for you and me
Ain't that a Liberal something to see,
Ain't that a Liberal, cryin' like a baby
Little glass houses for you and me

Apparently the John missed the little ditty and the changes that come around were he was suppose to become a man...truly an "American Fool."
