For the Pharmacists and Dispensary Staff administering prescriptions
To the Dermatologists who ease us when we’re itching
From the Doctors and GP’s who heal our cancer and our sneezes
To the Researchers discovering advancements in disease

We will celebrate and advocate
Fight for you til the end!

From the Porters and the Drivers who transport us every day
The Para-medics and Emergency teams who help us on our way
The Psychologists and Councillors who supporting when we’re down
To the Physiotherapists who help us move around
We thank you, we praise you, you are our NHS!...

From the Midwives and Neonatal teams who birth and tend new life
The Surgeons and Anesthetists helping us under the knife
For the Managers and Engineers who mind the wheels a turning
The Estate staff and Administrators who keep the cogs a churning
We thank you, we praise you, you are our NHS!...

The Rheumatologists and Osteopaths who ease our aching bones
The 999 and 101 staff - our first port of call
The Dentists, Hygienists, Technicians, helping us to smile
You’ll NEVER be replaced by the NHS online!
We thank you, we praise you, you are our NHS!...

From the Support staff and Auxiliaries who help us wash and bath
Let’s hear it for the Clown Doctors, who make the children laugh!
And the Cardiologists - who keep our hearts a ticking

To the Behavioural Therapists who help us socialise
The Dieticians who deal with our intolerance
To the Pathologists and Autopsy staff who specialise in death
We thank you, we praise you, you are our NHS!...

The Gynacologists, Sexual Health Teams fixing problems down below
And the Laundry Services workers, who wash our dirty clothes
I’m sure I’ve thanked everyone, but let me have a think…
We can’t forget the cleaners who deal with all our ****! (STINK!)
We thank you, we praise you, you are our NHS!...
