'Something must be done', about
something that is obviously wrong,
and just as often disbelieved the speaker.
King Edward the VIII said it first,
of the poverty of the miners in South Wales,
on the 17th November 1936, as he toured
his country, meaning they should be supported.
The playboy king, looked so fine in uniform
and had such a good life that 25 days later,
under pressure from The Establishment,
he accepted that he should abdicate.
Everyone who has used the phrase
since seems to echo his detachment.
