A bit of doggerel from my first day of the local stay at home order. There may have been drinking involved...

In my hometown there live a maid
Mark well what I do say
In my hometown there lives a maid
And she contracted CO-VAI-AID
I’ll go no more a rovin’ with you fair maid
Since COVID, oh COVID, since COVID’s been my ru-aye-in
I’ll go no more a rovin’ with you fair maid


First she coughed and then she sneezed
And now I fear I am diseased

Next came the toilet paper scare
Now I can’t wipe my derriere

Now says the mayor of our town
Get off the streets we’re shuttin’ down

Then comes a message from my boss
You’re non-essential, that’s your loss

Now all the bills are comin’ due
From the insurance, the hospital and the doctor too

When I’m dead don’t mourn for me
I can’t afford a eulogy
