My tribute song to the covid years of frustration, fear and bemusement as we all sat locked down in our houses, watching the world go by. Then every day we got to watch the media blast out numbers of how many people died or were hospitalized, as well as the ever-changing number of days recommended (or required) for quarantine. All that being said, believe it or not, it's actually kind of a funny song.

Lyrics

I’m sitting here in numbers as I watch at the sky
Birds go by— I’m
Sitting here in numbers on this lovely day
At home again I stay

First they said it’s only 14 days
Just 14 days to flatten the curve
Lalalala
Who could argue with just 14 days
5-4-3-2-1 There’s billionaires in space today and
Lalala Lalala

I’m sitting here as numbers flash across my screen
How obscene! We’ll all be
Sitting here in numbers till this thing runs dry
My oh my oh my
Lalalalalalala Lalalalala

First they said it’s only 14 days
Just 14 days to flatten the curve
La la la la la la la la
Then they said it’s only ten days
Well maybe five days (C’mon now!)
5-4-3-2-1 There’s billionaires in space today
lalalalalalalalala

What are we gonna do today
All my friends are locked away
They’re got us sitting in our living rooms
Staring at the floor
I’m not gonna stress this anymore
Lalalalalalala Lalalalala

I’m sitting here in numbers
On this lovely day
Hey hey hey look I’m
Painting by the numbers
Watching years go by
My oh my oh my
lalalalalalalala
