The Lyrics

Oh, it started with a bat in the PRC
And now it's going round the world through you and me
So you better wash your hands and don't stick around
'Cause this virus looks like a bunch of mushroom clouds

It's the 2020 novel coronavirus
Passing through with ease, it's coronavirus
Coughing fever gasping coronavirus
That is what you'll get

Oh, listen to the doctors and what they say
Because any time soon it won't go away
If you want to see your friends and have some fun
Then stay six feet apart until it's done

It's the 2020 novel coronavirus
Passing through with ease, it's coronavirus
Coughing fever gasping coronavirus
That is what you'll get

Oh, we're still on one side of the curve
Don't get impatient and get perturbed
The older folks aren't quite as strong
So think of them as we sing along

It's the 2020 novel coronavirus
Passing through with ease, it's coronavirus
Coughing fever gasping coronavirus
That is what you'll get

When you go to the store, better make it fast
Leave some for others, don't take the last
There's plenty of TP to go around
So take what you need, don't be a hound

It's the 2020 novel coronavirus
Passing through with ease, it's coronavirus
Coughing fever gasping coronavirus
That is what you'll get

And now my friends, this ditty's done
Let's all relax and have some fun
Learn new ways to enjoy yourselves
While the grocery workers restock the shelves
