A&E

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 battle ground they never lose I'm no politician But 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 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 I'm no politician I can see something wrong It wouldn't hurt so much to give them more 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
