Policeman

Every day, he wakes up as his bare feet hit the floor
Grabs a cup of coffee, straps his Magnum on once more
Feeds the cat he lives with since his wife walked out the door
In nine years, he'll retire with a pension

Every day, he suffers 'cause he sees all kinds of pain
Sometimes feels helpless in a world that's gone insane
Then he wins a battle, it restores his faith again
It's only human kindness he is after

He is a Policeman, you know
All the years and nothing to show (nothing to show)
He is a Policeman, you know

Every night, he comes home with a six-pack all alone
Feeds the cat he lives with, he picks up the telephone
Needs to talk with someone, but the only love he's known
Was lost forever, he is a Policeman

He is a Policeman, you know
All the years and nothing to show (nothing to show)
He is a Policeman, you know
All the years and nothing to show (nothing to show)
Nothing to show

He is a Policeman, you know (you know it, you know it)
He is a Policeman, you know (he is, you know)
He is a Policeman, you know (you know it, know it)
He is a Policeman, you know (he is, you know)
He is a Policeman, you know (you know it, you know it)
He is a Policeman, you know (he is, you know)
He is a Policeman, you know (you know it, know it)
