The miles feel so much longer Than they did ten years ago I’m sure that Global Warming Has caused the Earth to grow My body is not responding My mind is screaming stop The bits of heart still beating Are surely going to pop Ignore the pain and weakness Continue with the run I’m trying to raise money In memory of my son Another mile has drifted past The Finish Line in sight I’ll do this if it kills me I summon all my might I cross the line, I’ve finished The hardest bit begins Collecting all the money Rattling all the tins They ask me how I’m feeling To have done it in his name Am I feeling warm and fluffy That others get to gain I think about the question Decide that they are mad The only feeling that I have Is I miss my little lad So why on earth then do it Endure all this pain Well someone has to do it And I did it in his name
