coronavirus sell off
it will disappear
the emperor has no clothes
see, I told you so
i take no pleasure in failure
in disaster or despair
if things were good for everyone
there would be no there there
alone in quarantine
stuck on a ship
locked in apartment buildings
with no more food
it's almost like prison
to shelter in place
behind the bars of fear
and unknown fate
while the rich and powerful
are actually right
this too shall pass
but at what cost
they can afford to lose some people
although they need the people
to steal from...
eat the rich

I'm pretty damn nervous about going outside
in isolate recovery from virus inside
I want to feel safe I want to go outside
I know the rules: watch the world die
baseball is cancelled, basketball is done
Indy pushed to August, Olympics 21
I'll still pay the mortgage because I can't send
Payback all at once when this shutdown ends
I'm feeling like a ghost, floating above myself
My mouth is dry and so are my eyes, I'm suffering from bad health
Stores are closed and restaurants are take out only now
The price of gas is going down, no one's driving now
Schools are closed and kids can't play, the internet is all
The only way to see a friend is a facetime call
The food I eat is top shelf, my baby makes sure we're fed
But I cant kick this cough I fear, wont stop until I'm dead
virtual time to work from home, essential folks in flight
I worry to death about my team, who have to work on site
I'm feeling like a ghost
floating above myself
I'm suffering from bad health
I want to feel safe I want to go outside
I know the rules: watch the world die
baseball is cancelled basketball is done
Indy pushed to August, Olympics 21
I'll still pay the mortgage because I can't send
Payback all at once when this shutdown ends
I'm feeling like a ghost, floating above myself
My mouth is dry and so are my eyes, I suffer from bad health
The food I eat is good, baby makes sure we're fed
But I cant kick this cough I fear wont stop until I'm dead
virtual time to work from home, essential folks in flight
I worry to death about my team, who have to work on site

staying inside
we're gonna hide
from the virus
in the world outside
avoid the germ
that likes to get inside
your tender lungs
and drown you in your shit
I come from
a generation
that hides from you anyway
we go outside
and avoid people we see
we shop the market
carefully
carefully
I come from
a generation
that hides from you anyway
this epidemic destroying society, yeah!
I live like this anyway...aaaahhhh
too bad you all have to live like I do, now
too bad you all have to live like I do, now
too bad you all have to live like you do now
psychological house arrest
We go back to work
with new rules
new rules
protect yourself
as if you work
in an emergency room
an emergency room
I want to live
and go outside
and go outside
don't want to die this way
but I'm dying anyway
dying anyway
I want to be free
from this idiocracy
our government
is a talk radio
commercial for
miracle cures & catheters
miracle cures & catheters
this is the epidemic destroying society
I live like this anyway
too bad you all have to live like I do, now
too bad you all have to live like I do, now
too bad you have to live like I do, now
too bad you have to live like I do, now
too bad you all have to live like I do, nooowwwww!

I want to get away
And see the ocean once again
There's a place I like to go
It's been since I don't know when
I feel like I've been here before
Hiding in a drug induced quarantine
But we don't know what's in store
The world has changed
Quite a lot
I drive to the grocery store
And then I inch a mile more
And try another grocery store
Just to get away from here
And I find myself ten miles from home
Long distance traveler
To the far end of town
Maybe cross the city limits
And venture out to uncharted territory
In the next town over
Pandemic world traveler
Take a chance with my mask
To the next town over
Pandemic World Traveler
Pandemic World traveler

My contact information
Is in the file cabinet
If you need to handle my estate
If I leave this world unexpectedly
Don't be sad for me
I've made arrangements
For you to have it all
I've been around a long, long time
I've saved pretty penny over time
You'll be alright I swear
Don't shed a tear
If you find yourself alone
Just call my old iPhone
and listen to my voice message
it says "I love you"
Go on and have a good life
Enjoy the spoils of my coffers
If covid takes me down
Take all I have to offer
I'll be just another statistic
It's okay
I never thought I was
long for this world
With my childhood illness anyway
But I was here to give you
A good life and love and things
I leave you everything
Go on and have a good life
Enjoy the spoils of my coffers
If covid takes me down
you'll get all I have to offer
I'll leave you everything
I'll leave you everything
I leave you everything
I leave you everything but me

So lookie here
I don't feel a thing
I took my roadkill denial skills
and now I look the other way
as 1500 people die everyday
I'm cool with vaccine,
therapy but I see suffering
but I don't fear
Die, don't feel a thing
I see healthcare workers burning out
but I don't feel a thing anymore
At first I was so excited
But now I'm bored
Worried
Afraid
Numb
Over
It
I don't care I don't care I don't care I don't care I don't care
I don't feel a fucking thing
you say 'fuck my feelings?'
I don't have any feelings left for you to fuck
and I don't care, I say I care
but I dont care, nobody cares anyway
advice form the dead

Well I've got covid now
Omicron to be specific
I assume my baby had it too last week
when she wasn't feeling terrific
She's negative which is positive
I'm positive which is negative
Her mom's also got it
and that makes us feel like shit
But we got our shots
so we probably wont end up dead
You know that moment when you just know
Like when you got knocked up
or realized he was messing around on you
Well, I knew when that waitress stuck her face
in my mother in law's face
and said I'm sorry I don't understand you
she had to lower her mask to talk
and she gave her the disease
She's negative which is positive
I'm positive which is negative
She's negative which is positive
I'm positive, which is negative now?
whatever, whatever, whatever, whatever
I feel like a horrible cold or flu ruined my 3 day weekend
2 sleepless nights with sweats called in sick one day
But now I'm feeling guilty
Why do I get it and not die
Why did 875 thousand people get it
and die why? why?
