Give Me A Name

CLICK HERE TO HEAR AUTHOR READ


I'm always looking, 

For someone to blame,

Give me a name, give me a name.

Could be some guy,

Could be some dame,

There's gotta be someone,

Who I can blame,

Give me a name, give me a name.

Doesn't matter who,

To me it's the same,

Give me a name, give me a name.

Someone well-known,

Who I can defame,

Or someone unknown,  

I've no sense of shame,

Give me a name, give me a name.

I'll figure out some way,

My innocence to proclaim,

Give me a name, give me a name.

Some call me a genius, 

Others insane,

Just give me a name, give me a name.

It's not about facts,

It's all about the frame,

Give me a name, give me a name.

    1. In a word. Trump. After the indictment this week. Looking for anyone to blame for his obvious misconduct. Reminded me of his famous line in the debate ‘Gimme a name’ when he was asked by Chris Wallace if he would denounce white supremacy groups, and he said ‘stand back and stand by’ (when what he really meant was stand down, I think). Of course politicians love playing the blame game. Blaming is akin to breathing for them. And then again, we all do it, sometimes.
