BUT I SALUTE THE DOCTORS

Should I salute the soldiers,
Who suffer, bleed and die,
Defending truth and freedom,
As told by men who lie;
My tribute’s for the doctors,
Who mend the broken hearts,
When doctors are for living,
Who needs a dying art?

One defends his motherland,
At least that’s what he’s told,
Physicians help the mothers,
Whose sons are lying cold,
Barrack square or doctors’ care,
One saves the dying breath,
Whilst squaddie’s trade is plunder,
He’s paid by tears and death

Far better white than camouflage,
Why hide behind a suit,
Better doctor’s footsteps,
Than dollars to salute.
A soldier’s paid for breaking hearts,
The lies he must defend,
Doctors have their work cut out,
There are many hearts to mend.
