The Contagion of the World
Flu, Flu, Flu
All you here about nowadays is the Flu, Illness and Ill Health
A, B, Coronavirus, Flu
It spreads around the world
Its tentacled spider legs reaching out covering a path of destruction
Our world is becoming the Under Side
Infected, Mutilated, Zombie-like we tread
Afraid of ourselves and what we could contract
Afraid of others and what they could contract from us or give to us unwillingly
The aches, pains, coughs, constrictions of the chest
It is unbearable, yet we bear through it the best we can
Isolate, Vaccinate, Rest R&R, Medicine, Medicine, Good PR
Soon we will be fine, soon we will be ok
The Earth is ill and so are we
We must heal if we are ever to fight this
Stop the spread, stop the pain, stop the malice
There is hope in a hopeless world
We just need to reach for it
