Browncoat Man

by Lux Lucre

He's a rebel and a runner

He's a soul who's flying clean

He's a restless young romantic

Wants to beat the big machine

He's got a problem with the Allies

But his victory is sure

He's cleaning up the systems

To keep his freedom pure

Learning to match the beat of the core world man

Learning to catch the heat of the rim world man

He's got to make his own mistakes

and learn to mend the mess he makes

He's old enough to know what's right

and young enough not to choose it

He's noble enough to free the 'verse

but weak enough to lose it

He's a Browncoat Man

He's a stolen goods receiver

Comes from factories and farms

He's a herder and ranger and a young boy bearing arms

He's got a problem with the powers

His weapons on patrol

He's got to walk the Valley

And keep it in control

Trying to save the day from the core world man

Trying to pave the way for the rim world man

He's not concerned with yesterday

He know's constant change is here today

He's noble enough to know what's right

But weak enough not to choose it

He's wise enough to free the 'verse

But fool enough to lose it

He's a Browncoat Man

Learning to match the beat of the core world man

He's learning to catch the heat of the rim world man

He's a Browncoat Man

He's a Browncoat Man

He's a Browncoat Man
