CONNOR COMES CLEAN

Connor
I’ve learned something, my Rosette,
That means you should learn something too.
I’m speaking from the heart,
And hope you’ll do the same.
Things happened long ago
Of which I am ashamed.
But now it’s time to tell.

I never told your mum,
She thought I’d gone away.
The truth was far from that.
I was very close in fact,
Living in hell!

My real name is Connor Blake.
For many years I took what I could take.
Two billion pounds is what I lost,
Ten years in jail is what it cost…
It was hell!

Then on release a change came over me.
For years I toiled before I made MP.
My story’s now been sold to the press.
If printed, then I’m in a mess!
Where should I go, what should I do?
My dear Rosette, please don’t be mad.
What am I? What am I?

Rosette
You are my dad!
What you can do is forget all the past.
There is nothing to forgive,
Whatever you tell me I’m still your Rosette
For as long as you live!

Connor
You are a dear!
I have been on a journey
Through heaven and hell.
I think it’s time that we opened our house
For a party as well.
Let’s send out some invites to all that we know.

Rosette
A good idea!

Connor
So that’s decided, let’s start the show.

Rosette
It’s about bloody time, so come, let’s go!
