Covid-19 has us in quarantine,
Nothing at all can go unclean.
Food and masks are falling short,
Using Zoom is like a sport.
We’re all home lacking chivalry,
All our food is from delivery.
I have a basement full of food,
It really is all very crude.
We just stay at home and read,
Gina Raimondo is taking a great lead.
Online school feels like the end,
Can’t talk to even a single friend.
My birthday is coming up soon,
Though I doubt I'll see a single balloon.
Can’t get together with family,
It really is all such a tragedy.
Nothing at all can go unclean.
Food and masks are falling short,
Using Zoom is like a sport.
We’re all home lacking chivalry,
All our food is from delivery.
I have a basement full of food,
It really is all very crude.
We just stay at home and read,
Gina Raimondo is taking a great lead.
Online school feels like the end,
Can’t talk to even a single friend.
My birthday is coming up soon,
Though I doubt I'll see a single balloon.
Can’t get together with family,
It really is all such a tragedy.
