covid 19 - skyler baird lyrics
covid19 poem
“this is the new normal.”
your cashier behind a wall of plexi glass, no ”god bless you” for a sneeze
only stares like you’re about to be violent, like you’re spreading a disease to somebody’s mother you better stay silent. if you hint it’s exaggerated they put you to shame and give you a task. “research, research and research some more. if you don’t conform we’ll show you the door
“in these times of uncertainty”
you’re going to need a new job, if you can find one. or they’ll shut your business down, “there’s no need to be violent, they don’t have to go the same route that i went.” republicans and dems weaponizing the virus, or so it would seem. i only wish there was a political vaccine! “we saw it first, no we did, no you!” they shout at each other through thinly veiled attacks. trying to point blame for not wearing a mask
they want you to succeed but it all seems strange.. liberal cities shut down while republican driving the range
la, new york, illinois just to name three. they have something in common, their hate begins with a t
“we’re just doing the best we can”
i’m not saying it’s a fake but you have to admit it’s a little bazerk… that we don’t think twice when they pay us to not to work. ppp, sba. “don’t pay your mortgage this month,” delay. depart. dismay. only zoom calls since may
“an abundance of caution”
we can’t go to school or go to the mall. home depot is cool even their bathroom stalls. stay 6′ away if you do. the food is all contaminated unless it’s * drive through. can’t go to church they put sand in your skate park. perhaps we’re wrong covid*19 is actually a work of art? is russia laughing? oh wait… is it china, could it be? over a million in sick in america but it hardly made it to beijing… ?
“in these unprecedented times”
all the boats and supplies have stopped. trade is at a halt. “it’s because of virus concerns” strange as can be, they don’t want to tell us it’s wwiii
families are closer, spending lots of time, “were in this together.” depression is on the rise despite the sunny weather
the fed& jerome powell want the economy back on track $6t dollars later is going to put the markets out of wack. for now, they rise and fall on the hopes of a vaccine..
maybe we don’t need one after all? 10*4 or is it 11? maybe we’ll wake up realizing covid19 was all a dream.
