Rations
Drinking coffee underwater,
It don't taste like it ought ta
Now running low on salt and pepper,
Not allowed out until someone lets her
Waiting for the lawman to fire that starting gun,
Locked inside to make our own fun
In 9 months we really could have a baby boom,
Locked together for 12 weeks, stuck in the same room
Nothing on the telly that can resemble a decent sport,
The kids at home now all being self taught
Lets get over this blip and laugh it off in due time,
As most of us will live, with just the unfortunate that die
People in the aisles all fighting over soap and bog rolls,
Who ever thought a dump would take its toll
But come on people, it's not hard to stay inside,
Batten down the hatches on a scale called nationwide
We'll all have stories to tell on how we survived,
Now let's all just get our heads down and stay alive!
