As Britain Gets Better

From John o'groats, to portland bill Sothend to Tenby too' Britain is straining might and main, or p'raps we're muddling through? Through all the guff; the short supply; in the face Of daunting news, our women and men have entered the fray, to fight this novelle flu' Nhs staff and carers have taken the brunt, our leader was down a'while too! Some have called on the Lord to stand in the gap, to strengthen heart; and soul and sinews! As the doctors plan and rationalize; amidst the hullabaloo, come now let us join the fight As come what might, for Britain is muddling through' the capt'n walks on a frame of hope We salute the many like you! Though we stay at home, we've minds and wills; to search The way till the day breaks true, let Britain unite and we'll smash this blight We're understated yes.. Yet muddling through!
