Who Cares ?

Who will look after the cared for

When the carers can care no more

On their way for want of pay

When staying means staying poor

Who will tend to the needy

When the tendency's to underman

In the land of the mean and the greedy

What price love for our fellow man

Who will counsel the grieving

When the desperate and grieving abound

Not our betters grown rich from their thieving

While their pledges lie broke all around

Who will bring hope to the weary

Who have tired of the lectures and lies

While the future seems ever less cheery

Save for those with their eyes on the prize

Prioritising

Not greed

Nor creed

Just what we need
