I want to go outside and play
But COVID-19 came our way
The pandemic has left us marooned
Oh, when will my life be resumed
There's emptiness, utter dismay
'Coz COVID-19 came our way
True togetherness must be assumed
Or else we will surely be doomed
What a joy it will be when they set us all free
And we dance arm in arm out the door
With a smile on our face
We'll all warmly embrace
And I'll race you to get a coiffure
I'm trying so hard to obey
The rules that will save us they say
But the others refuse to comply
That's why we're all going to die
Dear Mother, come help us, we pray
We have a big monster to slay
For we can't do this all on our own
Is this what it's like to be grown
What a joy it will be when they set us all free
And we dance arm in arm out the door
With a smile on our face
We'll all warmly embrace
And I'll race you to get a coiffure
I'll just stay inside and crochet
'Til COVID-19 goes away
This is just one more burden to bear
I thank you for letting me share
