A Porters Approach To Coronavirus

Since that shutdown thing Things have been quite quiet here at work Im a porter in a hospital Moving people for transport and some other things now My hospital has stayed the same, But everyone is looking like surgeons and dentists, Ive read the governments writing, We mustn't do this; we must do that, Fair enough, They probably know their stuff The COBRA meetings probably sort it all out With them plonked in the under-Westminster bunker People are going rather do-lally Wearing gas-masks, NBC suits and more All we read at the hospital is grey and different from the other The shops MAY open; the schools WILL close The staff are doing their bit - not so much at this hospital We help people who cant walk and move I do wish the papers would stop We might as well give up if we take all that seriously...
