‘It’s technically a 2 week wait referral’ you say as I’m driving down the hill Two Week Wait - words like stones in my tummy Then you’re gone, as was the plan - stick to the plan ‘Hey, I’m back tomorrow - I have a biopsy at 8am’ Not the plan, stones in my tummy ‘It’s Cancer’ You squeeze my hand very tight, your lovely hand And then it’s waiting - for a scan, a result, a date, a blood test Not like waiting for Christmas, a bus, a happy meal, a letter Waiting with stones in my tummy - your tummy Maybe I can try to squeeze it out of you? Too much, too tight It needs to be the robot’s job Try and stick to the plan - what was the plan? How can you be up in the air with stones in your tummy? You told me once - ‘I’m not going anywhere’ And the crossword puzzle said Miracle I’m going to say a prayer to whoever might listen, about you and these stones in my tummy
Stones in my tummy
It's a two-week wait referral, you say as I drive down the hill Two-week wait - words feel like stones in my tummy Then you're gone, as planned - stick to the plan Hey, I'm back tomorrow - I have a biopsy at 8 am Not the plan, stones in my tummy It's cancer You squeeze my hand tightly, your lovely hand And then it's waiting - for a scan, a result, a date, a blood test Not like waiting for Christmas, a bus, a happy meal, or a letter Waiting with stones in my tummy - your tummy Maybe I can try to squeeze it out of you? Too much, too tight It needs to be the robot's job Try to stick to the plan - what was the plan? How can you be up in the air with stones in your tummy? You told me once - I'm not going anywhere And the crossword puzzle said miracle I'm going to say a prayer to whoever might listen, about you and these stones in my tummy
