Revolution Of The Daleks! Poem by Denis Martindale

The Daleks think they've won the day,
The Master Race Man must obey,
The Doctor strives to find a way
To change the course of time.
When Daleks seek to seize control,
Their revolution takes its toll,
And that's when heroes play their role,
Yet heroes bide their time.

Companions come, companions go,
Yet once again they face the foe,
The battle rages to and fro,
To change the course of time.
When Daleks cheat and Daleks lie,
Their weapons soon make people die,
And courage seems in rare supply,
Yet heroes bide their time.

Stay strong and strive to be the best,
When darkness reigns and minds are stressed,
Despite the measure of the test
To change the course of time.
When Daleks glide and Daleks fly,
Nobody's safe on earth or sky,
And people pray and ask God, 'Why? '
Yet heroes bide their time.

No wonder people pray again,
And longer than just now and then,
For heroes and that moment when
They change the course of time.
Heroes unite to make their stand,
Each plays their part and lends a hand,
It's win or lose on hopes they've planned,
Time after time after time.
