A song from a Northern Cali punk band from over 20 years ago, remade because it's timeless!

Just something for you all to listen to; enjoy!
A simple idea; get four guys together in a room, hand them some instruments, hope that they can play 'em, and let them go at it! An even simpler one; take one of those four, get him a place to present song ideas, then let the band develop them further... This is what you have here...

Story behind the song
Didn't write it, but listen to the lyrics and try to find the original; it's worth it!
Lyrics
It's the American in me that makes me watch the blood Running out of the bullet hole in his head. It's the American in me that makes me watch TV See on the news, listen what the man said He said "Ask not what you can do for your country what's your country been doing to you Ask not what you can do for your country what's your country been doing to your mind?" It's the American in me says it an honor to die In a war that is a politician's lie It's the American in me that makes me watch TV see how they unplug people everyday They say "Ask not what you can do for your country what's your country been doing to you Ask not what you can do for your country what's your country been doing to you?" In the USA! In the USA! In the USA! It's the American in me that makes me watch the blood Running out of the bullet hole in his head. It's the American in me that never wonders why Kennedy was murdered by the FBI "Ask not what you can do for your country what's your country been doing to you Ask not what you can do for your country what's your country been doing to you?"
