Lyrics
Chorus: We're off to ward round,
we're off to ward round;
to be ignored for fifteen minutes or so;
oh, lucky us.
They sit behind laptops and PDAs:
ticking boxes, symptom boxes, silly boxes,
to make themselves feel OK;
like they are proper doctors, or something.
Chorus
They overmedicate us,
and then berate us,
that we do not have enough
meaningful activity in our day.
They sit and judge us,
turn our brains to sludge for us,
then leave the ward and walk away.
Chorus
