5. “Yesterday”
And finally, a song for the patients—who really don’t want to be in the hospital, but who are lucky that there are the great nurses who have chosen this profession: The Beatles’ “Yesterday.”
Yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though I’m here to stay
Oh, I wish
It was yesterday
Suddenly
I’m not half the man I used to be
There’s a nurse now hanging over me
Oh, the pain
It came so suddenly
Why it
Had to come I don’t know
I couldn’t say
I ate
Something wrong now I long
For yesterday
Yesterday
Nurses weren’t poking me as on my bed I lay
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, how I wish it were yesterday
Why it
Had to come I don’t know
I couldn’t say
I ate
Something wrong now I long
For yesterday
Yesterday
The nurses didn’t know my name
Now they check my dressings and I have no shame
Oh, I wish it were yesterday.
Why it
Had to come I don’t know
I couldn’t say
I ate
Something wrong now I long
For yesterday….
