It first aired November 23rd, 1963
For the records, it was a Saturday
The day before,
Aldous Huxley and C.S. Lewis had just died
The Beatles released their second album
US TV was broadcast to Japan
For the first time, via satellite
Everyone in the world learned
Where Dallas, Texas was
And the name Lee Harvey Oswald
