The damn pandemic is looking like it’s here to stay
We’re not going outside till all the pestilence has blown away
When this mess is over there’s going to be some hell to pay
I count my blessings daily as I’m sure that you count yours
I don’t mind that I have to do my share of all the household chores
We order food online and it’s delivered by the local stores
It’s not bad if you can handle simple living in the great indoors
The mighty market’s crashed and the economy’s not doing too well
Our future looked so rosy till the virus came and broke the spell
Now we’re amazed to see how everything has gone to hell
"C’est la vie" say the old folks, "it goes to show you never can tell"
