No Change

All that I am

Will be wiped away

I’ve so much to share

‘fore facing that day

 

Well, I want to say

That life’s so unfair

Say death is a leveller

Say if you dare

 

The rich get the chemo,

The drugs and the knife

No effort is spared

Extending their life

 

The poor get excuses

Waiting lists and queues

Delays to their treatment

‘til it’s no fucking use

 

Now tell me that’s OK

And I’ll tell you that you lie

We all know life’s unfair

There’s no change when you die
