The Real Truth

We statesmen and reporters of the Press,
You know, do get things wrong from time to time;
And then we find it helpful to express
Regret for errors, not remorse for crime.

It happened a long time ago, of course -
Not on our watch, the fault of someone else;
So now we cry our crocodile remorse,
And grovel as expedience compels.

Some things were done that it was wrong to do,
So now we say the thing that's right to say.
We hope our words will be enough for you,
Because we're doing just the same today.
