All Together Now

"...We stay home alone/ And work via phone..."

All Together Now

We must fight Coronavirus --
Stop behaviors un-desirous:
Don't crowd in one place
And don't touch your face.
Healthcare workers do inspire us.

Because this pandemic virus,
Deliv'ry apps seek to hire us.
We stay home alone
And work via phone.
It's better than that they fire us.

If we try slowing this virus,
Our close neighbors will admire us.
They won't shake our hand,
At some distance stand,
Grateful that things aren't more dire-ous.
