Corona, Corona (this is my fight back sing-a-long song against the pandemic)
By John Hawkins
Sing-A-Long: Corona, Corona (a' after Dylan's Corinna, Corinna). We must lighten up amidst so much dread. F*ck it! During the 60s we spent half our lives singing and humping and giving the Finger to the Man. Put on your dancing shoes and sing the blues, as Bowie said.

Corona, Corona
By John Kendall Hawkins
.
Sung to the tune of Bob Dylan's "Corrina, Corrina" (Sing along beginning 7 seconds in!)
.
Corona, Corona
I been thinking bout you
Corona, Corona
You thinkin bout me too?
Wet market pangolin fall guys
Just gain-of-function in disguise
Flown round the world
.
I got a virus whistles
Got a virus sings
I got a virus whistles
Got a virus sings
But I ain't yet got Corona
Death don't mean a thing
.
(bluesy mouth harp riff)
.
Corona, Corona
Got me double bind
Corona, Corona
Got me testing blind
O, I just can't believe the data
Hmmm, I must just lose my mind
.
Corona, Corona
I been thinking bout you
Corona, Corona
You thinkin bout me, too?
Lock me down, mama, down with you
Spikes far sexier than Asian flu
Flown round the world
.
I got a virus whistles
Got a virus sings
I got a virus whistles
Got a virus sings
But I ain't yet got Corona
Death don't mean a thing
.
(bluesy mouth harp riff)
.
Corona, Corona
Got me double bind
Corona, Corona
Got me testing blind
O, I just can't believe the data
Hmmm, I must just lose my mind
.
Corona, Corona
I been thinking bout you
Corona, Corona
You thinkin bout me, too?
Cancelled Trump, hello Zoomy Zoo
O where's my relief, mama
Wouldn't mind some housing too
.
I got a virus whistles
Got a virus sings
I got a virus whistles
Got a virus sings
But I ain't yet got Corona
Death don't mean a thing
.
(bluesy mouth harp riff)
.
Corona, Corona
Got me double bind
Corona, Corona
Got me testing blind
O, I just can't believe the data
Hmmm, I must just lose my mind
Just can't believe the data
Corona, might just lose my mind
.
(repeat, extended bluesy mouth harp riff)
