letra de can we afford the doctor? - sandra kerr
[verse 1]
an apple a day
keeps the doctor away
you’ve heard the old saying, no doubt
and i’m sure it is true
but between me and you
there ain’t many apples about
though they grow on a tree
money doesn’t you see
and you’ve got to have money to buy
it’s the same with your health
it depends on your wealth
so if you are poor you must cry
[chorus]
can we afford the doctor?
the dentist, the midwife, the nurse
it doesn’t seem fair
medical care
should depend on the state of your purse
i know it’s a hard pill to swallow
and what can we take for a cure?
and if only the rich
can afford to be sick
how cheap are the lives of the poor?
[verse 2]
well we had a long wait
but the new welfare state
brought the nhs and peace of mind
new gl-sses, new teeth
and a sense of relief
no medical fees we to find
but you have to watch out
there’s mps about
who’d sell it as quick as a flash
to their friends, old school chums
who just sit on their b-ms
and do nothing but rake in the cash
[chorus]
[verse 3]
in these troubled days
the government says:
“we’ve got to make cuts to survive”
but there’s pounds and there’s pence
when it comes to defence
not to keep the health service alive
it’s time to take stock
not turn back the clock
to those terrible bad good old days
it’s our nhs
nothing more, nothing less
and never again must we say:
[chorus]
