Getting Priorities Right

The NHS is short of funds and often cannot cope;

So that for many elderly, there really isn’t hoe

Of having cataracts removed before they’re almost blind,

And though they are in constant pain, it’s likely they will find

They can’t have hip replacements for as long as they can stand,

For giving them any earlier, in some hospitals is banned.

But mention an abortion and the money will be there,

Which even to the stupidest must surely seem unfair,

For pregnancy is temporary, and to everyone it’s clear,

Requests for an abortion will quite shortly disappear;

But dodgy hips and eyesight will continue to get worse,

Until they’re operated on – just peak to any nurse.

So let’s ban all abortions paid for by the NHS,

And use the money saved to help those really in distress.
