This one is to be sung to the tune of ‘The Hokey Cokey’…admittedly not the best dance for social distancing!

Day 165… Woah, Coronavirus!

You shut your door, stay in,

You don’t go out.

You watch TV,

Eat your dinner on the couch.

You do the home-school teaching…

And you go quite mad;

That’s what it’s all about.

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Stay home!

Lockdown!

Hands-Face-Space!

The NHS is IN,

The PM’s OUT;

U-turns, fake news-

Makes you scream and shout.

You cancel all your holidays

See the planes aground;

That’s what it’s all about…

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Stay home!

Lockdown!

Hands-Face-Space!

Your Amazon order’s in,

Your local pub’s out;

Queue for the shop-

Buy some more loo rolls, no doubt.

You plant veg in your garden

Bake cakes, pile on pounds;

That’s what it’s all about…

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Stay home!

Lockdown!

Hands-Face-Space!

Crocs and khakis are in

High heels are out…

False lashes on,

Throw your lipstick out.

Put your trendy mask on

When you venture out;

Safety’s what it’s all about…

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Stay home!

Lockdown!

Hands-Face-Space!

Social distancing’s in,

Hugging’s out;

Wear your PJ’s all day,

While you laze about.

You hope they’ll keep on testing

And a vaccine’s found;

Then we can dance and shout…

All together now…

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Stay home!

Lockdown!

Hands-Face-Space!

Wait for it!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Woah, Coronavirus!

Stay home!

Lockdown!

Beer-Gin-Cake!
