It was written by ex-Gillan member Colin Town about the Ian Gillan's betrayal of his self titled band Gillan. He told them he had to take a break to have throat surgery (he didn't) and joined Black Sabbath. But that was just because he was waiting for Deep Purple to get back together (other members had contracts to finish out).
So Gillan has this song (and another by another ex-Gillan member Jim McCoy, entitled Because You Lied) written about him. Like he tried to disguise songs with his jabs to Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore. Justice is sweet.
