I've been self-isolating
Since before it was cool
But now that I have to
What is there to do?
There's been social distance
Now for far too long
Where better than quarantine
To write a song?
Can we all come together now, alone
And recognise that when we needed help
We always had each other to provide?
While the powers that be
Wrung their hands
The old way of doing things
Falls to the ground
No shock to the system
Has been more profound
We watch the mask slipping
Beneath it we find
Nothing more was needed
Than just being kind
Can we all come together now, alone
And recognise that when we needed help
We always had each other to provide?
While the powers that be
Wrung their hands
There's been social distance
Now for far too long
