Matt Heming - Ode NHS Lyrics

It's 3 in the morning on the hospital ward
Bays full of patients and minds are bored
Patients are sleeping or trying to stand
While they're waking for pain relief or IV drip stand
They're there when we need them
They'll be there all night
They're there on the days when we're fighting for life
They deal with abuse and accept your tone
And respond with a smile and a hand to hold
Oooh our NHS
We love you
We need you
We thank you for all that you've done
Oooh our NHS
We love you
We need you
We thank you for all that you've done
At the end of the day they're there to help us
With their little reward for continuous process
The cuts and the media not on their side
Yet they're still stood there fighting and saving lives
They're miracle workers you'd agree if you've seen
What they cope with on the daily should be only in dreams
The weight on their shoulders should surely collapse
By the emotional black hole of impossible mass
Oooh our NHS
We love you
We need you
We thank you for all that you've done
Oooh our NHS
We love you
We need you
We thank you for all that you've done
We'll hold you when you're leaving
We'll hug you when you're grieving
We'll make you look nice for your family on the day of your passing
Or we'll help you down the steps outside
And ring you a taxi or ride
Say to get home safe and we wish you the best in life
Oooh Woah
Oooh Woah
Oooh Woah
Oooh Woah
Oooh our NHS
We love you
We need you
We thank you for all that you've done
Oooh our NHS
We love you
We need you
We thank you for all that you do
