[Verse 1]
It's a shame that some must go without
But I was no fool to think it might be my problem
Needy hands were reaching out
I kept my spare change and my pride in a tight fist (in a tight fist)

[Chorus]
And now at the last
Everything is changed in this pale light
That death has cast on all I've done
On all I've done, on all I've done

[Verse 2]
I'm a good man on the whole
Who can blame me for looking out for number one
I never killed, I never stole
A small indulgence now and then, So what of it?

I'm a good man, I'm a good man
Am I good man? I thought I was

[Bridge]
But the rewards of this life now count for naught
My body soon buried and left to rot
The time's gone, how quickly it all has past
My God, now I see how I've squandered each and every breath
[Chorus]
Now at the last
Everything is changed in this pale light
That death has cast on all I've done

[Chorus 2]
Now at the last
Everything is changed in this pale light
And looking back I am undone
I am undone
