A Country Drags Heels
A Country Drags Heels
Most nations like ours need force for their heroes
They're gazing to navels, removing the fluff
Every place on this earth they celebrate two heroes
Doctor Who, home visits, patients
24 hours round the clock
The volunteers are working in shelter
They stay on their feet till they drop
Nothing be fairer than silence of carer
With forfeiting personal pleasure
Unknotted unsung, our land is bottom rung
But all of them national treasures
A Country Drags Heels
And always they scoff
Most nations like ours need force for their heroes

They're gazing to navels, removing the fluff
Every place on this earth they celebrate two heroes
She don't wear a Rolex, she don't wear a cape
She said they don't drive them out free
She said they don't drive them out free
He's driving a bus, he's just one of us
He's them, she's you and he's me
A Country Drags Heels
And always they scoff
Most nations like ours need force for their heroes
They're gazing to navels, removing the fluff
Every place on this earth they celebrate two heroes
