The Lyrics

Writing this was cathartic.
Look at this stuff
Isn't it neat?
Counted it all—my collection's complete
Wouldn't ya think I'm the girl

The girl who has everything?

Look at these books, I’ve read them all
How many novels are stacked in my hall?
Lookin' around here you'd think
Sure, she's got everything

I've got gadgets for online aplenty
I've got TP and face masks galore
You want recipe books?
I got twenty
But who cares?
No big deal
I want more

I wanna be where the people were
I want a hug, wanna go out dancin'
Walkin' around on those -
What do ya call 'em? Oh, feet

Hunkering down's getting really old
I want to ride on New Jersey Transit
Strollin' along down a -
What's that word again? Street

I want to walk, I want to run
I want to stay all day in the sun
Wandering free, wish I could be
Back in our world

What would I give if I could sit
Down in a restaurant?
What would I pay to spend a day
Warm on the sand?

Go back to work, wear a nice shirt
And put away these old pajamas
Work computing, and commuting,
And shaking hands

I’m ready to go where the people went
But will stay in ‘till we get some answers
What’s this virus and why does it
What's the word? Kill

When's it our turn?
It’s not yet time
I'll stay at home, and try to be fine
But as for me, wish I could be
Back in our world
Parody by Mason “keeping social distance” Resnick

One of the more depressing parodies regarding this subject matter, yet certainly is in tune with the OS. Well Done.

Hey there, good job on that one! Yea, honestly for me, I've never had to hunker down throughout all of this; I work in a warehouse doing grocery work, and Im still going to work every day like nothings changed; its just alot more work to do... I wish I could just stay at home like everyone else! Ive also done this song too, I went a completely different direction tho! lol
