lyrics

i really can't stay - baby it's COVID outside
i've got to go away - baby it's COVID outside
this nine months has been - you're lucky that you dropped in
so very nice - give me your hands, i'll sanitize
my mother wants me to come home - i hear her coughin over the phone
my father he is pacing the floor - there's toilet paper blockin the door
trump says not to worry - fauci says not to hurry
well maybe just a half a year more - i've got all this extra stuff from the store

The neighbors are sick - it’s bad out there
say what’s in this drink - I put oregano oil in there
What can I do -You’ll need a face mask too
To get through this - I need your healthy lips to kiss
I ought to say no no no sir - move six feet closer
At least I’ll say that I tried - I like your optimistic side

I really can’t stay
Baby, it’s COVID outside

I simply must go - it’s Covid outside
The answer is no - but it’s still Covid outside
This quarantine’s been - you really gotta stay in
Like Camus described - read all my books, you’ve got time
My sister she was waiting for me - I even got vitamin c
My brother thinks it’s all a hoax - i'll tell you all my Q Anon jokes
My uncle said it would go away - but it’s past Election Day
Well maybe just an episode more - we’re almost up to season four

I gotta get out - it’s disease out there
Say, lend me your mask - they’re coughing and sneezing out there
It’s time for me to retire - the numbers keep gettin higher
Oh but don’t you see - the percentage is up to three
The vaccine is coming soon - I disinfected your room
At least let me go dye my hair - I’ll give you my intensive care

I really should stay -
Baby it’s Covid outside
