"Policeman" lyrics

"Policeman"

Everyday, 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
Everyday, he suffers
Because 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)
Nothing to show

He is a policeman, you know (You know it, you know it)
He is a policeman, you know (He is, yeah)
He is a policeman, you know (You know it, know it)
He is a policeman, you know (He is, he is, yeah)
He is a policeman, you know (You know it, you know it)
He is a policeman, you know (He is, yeah)
He is a policeman, you know (You know it, know it)
He is a policeman, you know (He is, he is, yeah)
