And The Winner Is?  The Answer's  At The Bottom!!!



Well blimey what can I tell ya!  
Except, me body's fit for the bin!
A race against time, oh golly wow!  
What's gona get me, what's gona win!
I mean to say I have problems,
Much to many to mention to you!
I think it would take me an hour!  
To explain the list I have to go through!

When I die, I wonder how I'll go!  
Cos I have to be honest here!
I have that many conditions,
Me future aint very clear!!
Me hearts all knackered and diseased,
Me thyroid's up the spout!
Me bones, well what can I say?  
Except, they're bent and the alignment's out!

Cos they're crumbling by the day,
And by the night am in so much pain!
I have to say, is it any wonder at all…
That I am so totally flippin' insane!
Me arteries are full of rubbish and stuff;
It's all swimming about me bod!
And I have to be quite honest here…
I'm gona have a harsh word with me God!

Me right side is now sinking fast!  
Cos on the left I'm 5foot one!
But the right is that bent, I have to say!  
I'm a full inch shorter cos me heights all gone!
Then these me bleeding eye, yep,
that's as knackered as can be!
I mean to say, if it don't stop the bleeds,
I'm gona be as blind as a bat you see!

Then, lemme see, what's next…Oh, I know,
It's me poor head the one with the hole!
Cos the stupid brain surgeon that he was!  
Took me skull away, and now I aint whole!
Now then, oh, sheeesh, the epilepsy,
I knew there were some more!
Cos that one's cos of the brain tumour,
But if you play golf, it can be a hole in 4!

Oh, the diabetes, nearly forgot about that!
Then again, what can I say?
Except it's wrecking me whole body!
And it gets worse by the flippin' day!
Now then, what's next, lemme think,
Ooop's, of course, me livers up the wall,
Knackerd with the 24 tablets that keep me alive every day,
And me livers getting small!

Now then, lemme think a bit on this,
Oh, yep, me kidneys, that's another!
When they told me they were failing,
I shouted out for me mother!
‘Mum!' I said, ‘me kidneys are shot!
Just what will I do?'
Her reply to that was; ‘I don't know;
I haven't got a flippin' clue!'

Oh dear me and sugar plumbs,
Me body's fit for the bin!
And I forgot to tell you bout the hiatus hernia!
This body just can't win!
Then there's that thingy in the tummy,
Well, mine is overgrown!
It's turned bandit on me they said;
Oh gawd, wish they'd leave me alone!

And that other thingy, the ulcer,
It's caused a big hole in me tum!
Cos of that thingy that's overgrown,
Oh lordy what has it done!
What else have I got wrong with this body?
Blimey, I think that's enough!
At the end of the day, I have to admit,
This body's had it really tough!
Me auto immune system has gone to pot,
Well blimey, any wonder why?
I have to admit, it gets on me nerves,
And makes me wana cry!

…But…

I aint got this far without a fight,
And a fight it is, I'll tell you true!
Cos every day's hard, every problem a trial;
So I just do what I've got to do!

Fight!

And I do!  And I Fight Good!
And The Winner Is;

Me!!!

Now do you get it? It does NOT mean we will die
Cos things go wrong!

What you read, is more than true!
But I left some off, in case I bored you!

The Epilogue;

God help God when I get there!
He's gona be dead meat!!

Damn Right!!
