The Health of Nations - The Chap

Doctor Birch came round the house

Took one long look, then grounded me and said

«You didn’t take to heart what Doctor Smith Said»

«You didn’t take to heart what Doctor Smith Said»

Doctor Smith, Doctor

Doctor Smith, in a nutshell

Talked rent and trade, commodities and price

I always fell asleep during his lecture

I always fell asleep during his lecture

Doctor Smith, Doctor

Doctor Birch, Doctor

Now Doctor Birch comes round the house

With frightening regularity

I remain grounded, couch-bound

I think I always will

Always will, always

Always will, always
