The original song :
My parody of the song :
The parody was written in jest, with no intention of downplaying the seriousness of the pandemic, the sufferings of the people affected and the hard work of all the frontline workers. God bless them all!
I sung it a little slow, so, it sounds better when listened to with a playback speed of 1.25.
My lyrics of the parody :
I'm sitting here in my drawing room,
It's just another bright summer afternoon,
I'm washing my hands, I've got nothing to do,
I'm hanging around, Avoiding the flu,
But nothing ever changes, so I wonder!
I'm roaming around in my house,
I'm walking too fast, I'm walking too slow,
I'd like to see some people again,
I feel so lonely, You have no clue,
But nothing ever changes, so I wonder!
Chorus :
I wonder how, I wonder why,
Yesterday I heard the news and cried,
And all that I can see are empty streets!
I'm turning my head up to God,
I'm praying that this whole mess will turn around,
And all that we can do is not touch our face.
Sing!
Da-dadada- COVID go
Dadadada- COVID go
Go, go away!!
I'm sitting here, I miss my car,
I'd like to go out, somewhere far,
But there are germs just everywhere,
I feel so bored, Put myself into bed,
But, nothing ever changes, so I wonder!
Isolation, seems to be good for me,
Isolation, wash your hands each time you’re free!
I'm stepping around, out of my room,
In my hand there's a duster and broom,
And everything is so clean, so I wonder.
Chorus :
I wonder how, I wonder why,
Yesterday I heard the news and cried,
And all that I can see are empty streets!
I'm turning my head up to God,
Praying that this whole mess will turn around,
And all that we can do is not touch our face.
I wonder how, I wonder why,
Yesterday I heard the news and cried,
And all that I can dream (3)
Is of a world that's COVID free!
Thank you for reading! Stay blessed!
