Retired Doctor Recalled
Couldn’t leave yet,
One of them that I’d met
Moaning and screaming,
It feels like they’re dreaming.
Needed again,
Glad to give a refrain
But I’m now nearly eighty,
Active still though, matey.
Couldn’t say no,
Knocked up, asked not to go,
Help this doc has displayed,
Over this whole charade.
Me retired so I’ll roam
Exhausted, I want home!
