I am just an ageing

drummer boy
and in the wars I used to play
and I called the tune to many a torture session

Now they say I am a war criminal
and I'm fading away
Father, please hear my confession

I have legalized robbery
called it belief
I have run with the money
hid like a thief

rewritten history with my armies and my crooks
invented memories
