Your bruise is elegant As you demonstrate contempt, it's true And the targets you attack Mostly deserve a whack from you Yes, you're entertaining You fill up the page Fill it up with your rage But now there's a doubt Over the wisdom you hand out in speech Please tell us which you think Is the country we should next help invade? What a bloody carnage You cheered us into And the others like you Who never wore a uniform Lest it was a uniform Of a school or youth organisation But through watching others do What they would never do Holds a sad fascination And now I'm reminded By feelings so strong Of Bernie Taupin's lyric To Sir Elton's song Can you see the hardest work? Cos you demand apologies From public figures on their knees As you invite them to say so long So let's hear your rendition Of words of contrition For getting it so wrong Would you like to say something? Would you like to say sorry? Sorry That's S-O-R-R-Y
