Verses 1
I took my wife to the A&E
It took all night just to be seen
She broke her leg and was in pain
The nurses looked completely drained
But nice as pie and so composed
How do they cope it's hard to know
With violent men that hurl abuse
A daily battleground they never lose
Chorus:
Ooooh I'm no politician
Ooooh I can see something's wrong
It wouldn't hurt so much to give them more . .
It's got to be something worth fighting for
Verses 2
A stolen mind is hard to trace
A dose of drugs disguise the face
And any love behind the eyes
Is covered up when tranquilized
Mental health our doctors know
Is underfunded and unexposed
When happiness is swallowed deep
Other distractions put our nation to sleep
Chorus:
Ooooh I'm no politician
Ooooh I can see something's wrong
It wouldn't hurt so much to give them more . .
Outro Chorus Tag:
You criticise so that you can ignore
How hard they work and who they're working for
It's got to be something worth fighting for
