| Well, it started in Wuhan China by butchering a bat |
| Can you think of any food that's quite as strange as that? |
| So now we all just sit at home, being bored and getting fat |
| We're doing social distancing -- keeping sixteen feet apart* |
| You'd be standing much too close to me if you smell my fart |
| I hope we all get through this soon; I pray with all my heart |
| [chorus] Nobody said I'd be quarantined (--repeat twice more) |
| COVID-19 |
| A world-wide pandemic is what we all face |
| Schools and businesses close; we're sheltering in place |
| This 2020 blight affects the human race |
| The people on the front line are heroes to us all |
| We are so fortunate they're answering the call |
| They're doing all they can for us -- both big and small |
| [chorus] |
| 5G technology from mobile phone cell towers |
| Is zapping everybody with way too much power |
| Or is this a conspiracy theory gone sour? |
| [chorus] |
* As 'two heads are better than one' sixteen feet are better than six."
