Here's a story of a copper in the blue
Who always wore a chest so full of pride too
But the years counted had finally done him in
For it takes something from you that you can't defend
And his resilience was tested in a thousand ways
He kept at it as his duty's end was for him to say
Sometimes those on the outside looking in
Thought he needed to be pure against the wages of sin
But you see he was just a man living the best he could
And the judgement of the world was different as it would
For people who are impeachable are few and far between
So in the end judge as you like it will not change a thing.
