Broken rap, by Stephanie Spiers

 Broken Rap

When it's weird on the ward, waiting for the locum.
Keep fingers crossed, 'cause everything is broken.
Phone-box all messed up, some old biddy with a token.
Life slips away, bleeding, 'cause everything is broken.
Blues and twos took too long, not a word was spoken.
Kids carry blades, 'cause everything is broken.
Slicing and dicing, mouths full of hokum
Turn your face away, 'cause everything is broken.
Sisters staying safe in packs, keeping wide eyes open
Remember y' never saw nothing, 'cause everything is broken.
Nowt paramedics could do, another momma heartbroken.
Don't say a word, 'cause everything is broken
