Tune: Glory, Glory
Oh, listen to the pussy-footing ’round and round the block
hinting here and hinting there this privatizing talk
At universal medicare they’re starting now to balk
It’s now full speed ahead.
Get sick, you’ll make somebody richer (x3)
It’s for-profit healthcare now!!
Two-level medicine is great if you’re on top
Too bad if all the rest will have to wait until they drop.
Medicine’s a business that’ll never have to flop
And it’s now full speed ahead!!
The sicker we get, the richer we will make them (3x)
It’s for profit healthcare now!!
It’s cheaper to run healthcare as a public institution
But there’s no profit to be made so banish that solution.
Politicians, we suspect, have made a resolution
And it’s now full speed ahead!!
Get sick, you’ll make somebody richer (3x)
It’s for-profit healthcare now!!
