What's the point?

What's the point
Of trying to be a nurse
When all you get is grief.
I know I can do it and
I'm going to get through it.
So what's the point?
Gypsy, Gypsy, Gypsy
Is all you get.
So what's the point?
Travellers is what we are.
What's wrong with us?
We're just like you.
Nothing special.
Nothing different.
I can get A levels just like you.
Just because I'm a Traveller doesn't
Mean I can't.
They call us Tramps,
They think we're poor.
WE'RE NOT!
So what's the point?
Some live in houses believe
It or not.
We're just like you.
But what I'd like to know is
WHAT'S THE POINT?
