Stalin called last night
Requested a defence
Said he didn't kill his opponents
Gulags existence are lies
And besides they deserved it
Jack the Ripper wrote in
Said he was a cleanskin
The murders done in his name
Those killings infamous
Done by another not he
And besides they deserved it
These killers wholesale or retail
Always without fail
Have a reason why
Someone else has to die
Divine inspiration or for the greater good
Strange how when good for all pursued
At exclusion of individual rights
Leads to a removal of rights for all
A sentence of death for others
Workings of the mind logical
Conclude in decisions homicidal
And always the reasoning
It was never it was another
The mechanisms of the State
Due to duty to be performed
And always always sinner or saint
Because they deserved it.
