Why are you so crazy You want so much from me You want me to be knightly Yet you're no sort of Lady I'm a citizen-soldier There are none much bolder I won't fall on a knife Just to ease your life I'm the one in the mud All covered in Blood Yet the way you're acting You think I'm a king You want me in a shiny Chestplate You think it's the perfect mate I'll tell you one thing I'll not deliver you a ring Shiny Armour It's purely glamour It contains no honour Untested metal Sure to crumble I'm a citizen-soldier Suited for God's honour I'm not a Knight in Shining Armour

All it means is its never been tested.  Look for something tried and true
