Arrogant Old Men

They have not grown wiser though they are growing old
And they are famous and their life stories told
They take good care of the Me, Myself and I
But life will go on the day that they will die
Responsible for bloodshed, war and hate
Are these the people we should celebrate?
Though physically they have known a better day
In hair dye the gray that time bring they do hide away
Arrogant old war men full of patriotic pride
Because of them far too many have died
For lives lost due to them a price they have not paid
And they never admit that mistakes they have made
Arrogant old men conceited and proud
And sad to think many sing their praises loud.
