Captain Tom (Remove filter)
We should all be a bit of Captain Tom
“I won’t wear a mask.
I’ll do what I f’in want to do.”
But he just kept walking
Round and round
Doing more than this government ever could do
“I’ll see who I want
When I want.”
But in the years when he should be
Just letting go
He gave it all to us
A hospital he will never see
A cancer patient walking out pain free
A child’s broken limb, now ...
