Wealth is Health

La santé n'a pas de prix
Du moins c'est ce qu'on nous a appris
Mais curieusement c'est plus facile
Rester en forme si t'as du fric

Obrand dho fost i dalo'r teg
Mar bechto chon llonô an bêg
Ceiso deno'n poina sonllid
Gan dothin argan chon neidio'n ci

Privatise care by stealth
That's the hand that we're dealt
It's like I've always felt
Health is wealth, but wealth is health

You tut about obesity
And say that good food grows on trees
But they're not found near the cities
And their crops don't make their way there for free

You can tax sugar, drop VAT
It still costs morе to eat healthy
"More cooking skills is all thеy need"
More hours in the day and fewer mouths to feed

Privatise care by stealth
That's the hand that we're dealt
It's like I've always felt
Health is wealth, but wealth is health

When it's a struggle to fill a plate
To get some help to control your weight
And if you feel like you're going to break
Your mental health issues are just wished away
The darkest thoughts pool in my mind
Put out of sight, I'll be just fine

And operations have a six month wait
Good luck working when you need a hip plate
In emergencies, it's a test of fate
When your ambulance can come hours late
Let things get worse unless you pay

Privatise care by stealth
That's the hand that we're dealt
It's like I've always felt
Health is wealth, but wealth is health

Wealth is health
Wealth is health
Wealth is health
