lyrics

I went down to the grocery store
To get me a snack and a little more
Noticed everybody was running around
The whole store seemed to be upside down
There was no toilet paper
No hand sanitizer
I ask a guy where I can find an answer
He says aisle five if there’s any left

I started walking down that aisle three
I feel a sense of panic and misery
I grab a couple things I don’t even need
I notice there’s a sale so I buy seventeen
Tomato sauce jars
canned fruit
Bags of flour
Plenty of imported Italian pasta left

I went down to the aisle two
Cause I knew just a what to do
I grabbed me a tent and some kerosene
Thought I’d go find me a quiet stream
Lay low for a while
Quarantine
Call my job
Tell em I’ll be back in two weeks

I got out of the grocery store
And I went to open the car door
I had gone in for a little meal
But all they had left was a raw deal
The rich man has all the toilet paper
The poor man has none
They both have coronavirus
