Rudyard Kipling - The Instructor
Work rating: Low

At times when under cover I `ave said,
To keep my spirits up an` raise a laugh,
`Earin `im pass so busy over-`ead—
Old Nickel-Neck, `oo is n`t on the Staff —
"There`s one above is greater than us all"

Before `im I `ave seen my Colonel fall,
An `watched `im write my Captain`s epitaph,
So that a long way off it could be read—
He `as the knack o` makin` men feel small—
Old Whistle Tip, `oo is n`t on the Staff.

There is no sense in fleein`` (I `ave fled),
Better go on an` do the belly-crawl,
An` `ope` `e `1l it some other man instead
Of you `e seems to `unt so speshual—
Fitzy van Spitz, `oo is n`t on the Staff.

An` thus in mem`ry`s cinematograph,
Now that the show is over, I recall
The peevish voice an` `oary mushroom `ead
Of  `im we owned was greater than us all,
`Oo give instruction to the quick an` the dead—
The Shudderin`` Beggar—not upon the Staff!
