"Ich hab's gewagt"
Some have questioned him, his reasons, if he was mad
It all somehow remains unsolved, if he was or wasn't
Reichsleiter Rudolf Hess piloted a plane to the UK
He parachuted into Scotland, and quickly captured
Some say it was an act of a madman, others a ruse
He said he brought a offer of peace from the Fuhrer
However mocked, accused of being a traitor or fool
Rudolf Hess never retracted his claim, or beliefs
Dared fly a plane and leap but that wasn't treason
He never achieved his goal, but we do not know
What exactly was his goal, why don't we know?
