Not important enough to get killed
I led quite a safety first life
Too fit to die from most ills
Avoiding most trouble and strife
You might think it all sounds so easy
Just sitting back taking it calm
Worshiping Body and Spirit
Hoping it comes to no harm
I chose a hard way to make money
Serving Country and Queen
Sometimes it wasn’t so funny
You should see the places I’ve been
Now I get paid for my efforts
Without so much as a wink
Who can I thank for my future
The hardworking Taxpayer… I think

It sounds like the government ~ and the tax payers ~ are paying you back, nicely! ~ and deservedly so! You paid your dues in the service to your country!

If they would come up with a flat tax for individuals and Corporations I think I could say I love the tax man...until then, I will feel differently...James
