What Were You Doing?

People of a certain generation
Older than baby boomers anyway
Know exactly what they were doing
The day Oswald assassinated JFK

I have no inkling what I was doing
I was only seven years old you see
I would definitely know however
Had they assassinated Mr Pastry

I do know what I was doing exactly
When first I heard Bohemian Rhapsody
I remember like it was yesterday
And who I did it with on her settee
