The Lyrics

Norway are quickly changing their Covid vaccination guidelines since 23 people in homes for the elderly have died from side effects. Google it. Having twice in my life already been hospitalized from side effects myself (as a younger man) you can bet I'm worried about what to come. But at least my parody muse is still alive.

A YouTube version of the original song can currently be found here.
When you get the vaccine
Who will take the blame?
From the unknown side effects
Spreading through your veins
If you are lucky they're benign
Small itches to your heels
Maybe something runny, sonny
Kind that doesn't bleed
With the vaccine
When you get the vaccine
What it will bring no-one
Knows, knows
It's time to fret indeed

When you get the vaccine
And so you will one day
If it's bad you're guaranteed
An early but free grave
After a day of noisy hurls
Or ball-charring disease
Hirsute in the moonlight
Or a brain turned cottage cheese
From the vaccine
When you get the vaccine
Get the yeah, yeah, yet unseen
Is... is that a colour beyond green?

When you get the vaccine
You should genuflect and pray
Some drool might block your mandibles
And you might forget your name
If you've reluctance to what you see
Might sit this one out with me
Get in line for the side effects
Norwegians dead: twentythree
With the vaccine
When you get the vaccine
What it will bring no-one
Knows, knows
It's time to fret indeed

And when you're dead you never ever gonna come back
Come back, come back, come back, yeah!

You know what you are?
With or without it, baby
You're gonna die

Yeah, the vaccine
When you get the vaccine
What it will bring no-one
Knows, knows

With the vaccine
When you get the vaccine
Get the yeah, yeah, yeah, don't you whine

With the vaccine
When you get the vaccine
What it will bring no-one
Knows, knows

With the vaccine
When you get the vaccine
What it will bring no-one

It's coming to your town
Bah!

(Good luck everyone!)

Loved this! Scary and funny at the same time!!

Thanks Matthias! The idea was at first to write a list type parody about side effects upon side effect upon sideeffect stacking up one after the other - but I toned it done (partly out of necessity because of the tricky original song) and then I saw the news out of Norway (that are way more open about their failings with Covid than what my own country is).

... toned it down... dammit!

This is good. Yeah, scary and funny. Yet with 23 died that's not so bad overall. Some people will bad reactions to it, not everyone is alike. That's a fact. Planet Earth has 8 billion people. I hope you are one of the lucky ones who get no side effects from the vaccine. IMHO, the vaccine is better than nothing. My uncle died of CoVid on Dec. 23, 2020. He was 89 years old, a recent widower. Good job and good luck.
