NOT MY CIRCUS
Away from the city
In a small country town
Right up in the cape
A hospital LIES
I went there to nurse
It was my final escape
There was an old lady
Her smile like acid
She was the NUM
Her demeanor far from
Placid; her favourite
A gay AIN
This one male nurse
again drunk & stoned
A big lazy bully
Struck off the list to be cloned
He'd sit outside with another nurse
Smoking & gossiping
While I did the work
He touched us in the naughty places
He said vile things
& denied it all
Lying straight to their faces
I will not forget my treatment there
Bullied Abused Touched Depressed
DEEP DARK DISPARE
I cried out for help but no-one seemed
To care
She fired me and lied that witch
I sank deep down low
Into a ditch
What would I do?
Where would I go?
People will gossip
The truth-
They don't know....
I'm healthy now strong & proud
I DID NO WRONG
I won't leave town
This place right here a circus
& you're the clown
if you truly believe
I will back down.
