An Apology
For what the other lot call lies
I really must apologise?
Oh, very well then, I regret
The burden of the monstrous debt
That’s put the country on the rack
And turned the tide of progress back.
The ins and outs of why and how
I fixed the Footsie and the Dow
Are matters that I chose to veil
By pruning half the paper trail?
True, those on whom this most impacts
Just can’t be trusted with the facts
But always wickedly distort
Each red-top rumour and report.
So, yes, I say, no shades of doubt,
I’m sorry . . . that I got found out.
