‘Covid Blues’ by The Privy Poet

Been down with the Covid

Been down fer sev’ral weeks

Fer so long I been bedrid

And when I breathe . . . I squeak

 

Corona’s made me sick

Lethargy’s got me sicker

I decided to take a trip

‘Ile I still got a good ticker

And with twenty-twenty hindsight

I should’ve reckonsidered

 

I was walkin’ in the woods

and Lo, I felt a naggin’ itch

I paered down in my pants

N’ latched on was a snaggin’ tick

 

That tick was a-munchin’ and a-crunchin’

From nine to five

I din’t get it treated, an’ now I got

Corona with Lyme
