Can't shake this disease
Need to see you doc
I've got a spot
And it's been itching a lot.
Got through to reception
All I got was rejection.
Need an injection
Of physician affection.
Pulled my own tooth out.
No dentists about.
It had got infected
Again got rejected.
Yanked it out today
The root and the decay.
Really need some ointment
But there are no appointments.
Just pain and disappointment.
Seems you've got to be in the loop
Or extremely ill,
To get a prescription
For a pill.
Need a good dosage
Of a diagnoses,
Someone to look after my brains -
My veins!
Feeling the strain
And the remains
Of afterpains.
Tried to contact GP
Now well over sixty
Pressed many phone keys.
While feeling so crappy
And there's no guarantee
Anyone will see me.
There is an outbreak
NHS in a state.
Now it's one big bellyache
Feeling so much unease
Can't shake this disease.
Need some antibiotics,
Please.
