Ghost Mice released John and Jodie off their 2012 LP All We Got Is Each Other. The song acts as a tribute to John Hinckley Jr. who tried to assassination Ronald Reagan in March 30, 1981 in an attempt to win over the love of Jodie Foster,
Well John Hinckley Jr. might have been a little crazy
But there ain't nothing wrong with trying to kill the president
Specially when that president's Ronald Reagan, he almost killed us all
John Hinckley Jr. might have been a little crazy
For getting so obsessed with Jodie Foster
But how can you blame him, when she's so beautiful
And he did it all for love, yeah he did it all for love
It was all for love
And John Hinckley Jr. might have been a little crazy
For letting the movie affect him so strongly
But Robert De Niro was great back then
And it's easy to get swept away
If you ask me he was a true romantic
Like a hero from some fairy tale
I just hope someday, someone will love me that way
Whoa, I want to be loved, yeah I want to be loved
Like John and Jodie
I want someone to want
To assassinate a president for me
John and Jodie was written by Chris Clavin.
