The Man's Too Strong |
| 'm just an ageing drummer boy |
| And in the wars I used to play |
| And I’ve called the tune |
| To many a tortune session |
| Now they say I am war criminal |
| And I’m fading away |
| So father please hear my confession |
| I have legalized robbery |
| Galled belief |
| I have run with the money |
| And hid like a thief |
| I have rewritten history |
| With my armies and my crooks |
| Invented memories |
| I did burn all the books And I can still hear his laughter |
| I can still hear his song |
| The man’s too big |
| The man’s too strong |
| Well I have tried to be meek |
| And I have tried to be mild |
| But I spat like a woman |
