Lyr Add: new Covid parody on "So Long It's Been...

It's been a while so I thought it time to start a new thread. Sitting in quarantine gets tedious, don't it? Spending my precious gray cells growing a beard doesn't cut it so it's time to do a rewrite.

Started with So Long, It's Been Good To Know Yuh. If you don't know Woody's tune by heart, you've stumbled onto the wrong chat space.

Enjoy or not,

Well, that Covid hit and it hit like thunder
It dusted us over, put us six feet under
It blocked out our jobs and ended our fun
And straight for home all the people did run

Singing so long, it’s been good to know ya
So long it’s been good to know ya
So long, it’s been good to know ya
This nasty old Covid is getting me down
And I want to be drifting along

We stayed in our houses, we sealed up the cracks
We wore masks and gloves, stuffed our ears with wax
We blamed the Chinese, we blamed Democrats
And those Covidiot protesters sure have our backs

The churches were full, the churches were packed
And that dirty old Covid made such an attack
That the Blood of the Lamb didn’t give us no help
In spite of all that the preachers do yelp

I wash my hands ‘til my skin starts to crack,
I break out in cold sweat over sneezes and hacks
I can’t get no nookie, I can’t get no hug
I’m just too afraid of that corona bug

We can’t wipe our asses, we can’t get no food
The president tells us that everything’s good
He says he’s got it all under control
But somehow, I don’t seem to trust him at all
