Lost my job and can't look for another
Can't go and visit my elderly mother
Must not socialize with family or friends
And no one can tell me when all this will end
You must wear a mask when you go out to shop
Stay six feet apart or get busted by a cop
Self-quarantine if you think your infected
Watching fake news debate who'll be elected
A stimulus check meant to last you all year
And a toilet paper shortage is my wife’s biggest fear
Healthcare workers have been the frontline
Will they give them a pay rise? Surely, it's time
Though supermarkets are packed I can't get my hair cut
Cannot go for a beer because the bars are all shut
Never before has this world ever seen
The lies and the panic caused by covid nineteen
