about

The obligatory COVID song....

lyrics

The alleys are empty, the ghost in the street
The boards on the windows they keep in the meat
The science, the fiction, they made for the ring
But nobody reads so none knew a thing
The hipsters are shoulder-deep lined up for Joe
The blogs all abandoned how were they to know
The staples, the produce are prey to the touch
Try to ignore it, don't think very much

T'was predicted (I want to be wrong this time)
Self-inflicted but for the lack of a lime
Been evicted (I can't see how long this line)
I'm not feeling strong this time

Pile al your shit tickets up to the skies
When nobody lives then nobody dies
The poppies and nanas are dropping like flies
A hug and a kiss, a quick sanitize
The workers at home with dumb kids to beat
You pay for the tests once the forms are complete
The wolf at the door with nothing to eat
He won't find us here, dear, under the sheet

T'was a vengeance (I want to be right this time)
This final sentence but for the lack of a lime
Hail Mary pay your penance (I can't read this print so fine)
I'm not feeling strong this time

Wake me in the morning (I want to forget this time)
This final warning but for the lack of a lime
Somehow this ball keeps turning (I can't see from going blind)
I'm not feeling strong
