Florence Nightingale: I Brought About

From the hospitals of Crimea, to a revolution of nursing of her own; Florence Nightingale sings about her battle to bring about change. Despite a lack of support, nothing stopped the lady with the lamp!

LYRICS:

Nursing girls don’t get heard

By the men in suits, it’s absurd

I tried to change their views on care.

But they don’t wanna see their bureaucratic idiocy

Is leaving nurses in despair.

 

One, two, three, one, two, three, see

I can prove statistically

More healthcare efficiency

Would help significantly.

 

I’m gonna bring about change to patient care - try and stop me if you dare.

Telling you things, gonna change from the norm, total social reform.

I’m gonna try to talk to the Queen, help to intervene.

I’m gonna bring about change around here, change around here.

 

Like a train through your government rule,

You’ll never stop my nurse-training school.

One of the first rules I put in place,

Was to clear all wards of bodily waste.

 

I brought about big change to patient care; couldn’t stop me, didn’t dare.

Telling you things, proper change from the norm, total social reform.

I brought about universal nursing care, the lack of nurses wasn’t fair.

Telling you, I brought some change around here, change around here.
