about
The new single called, 'Covid Friendly' by Pretty Ruin. A homage to 'My Little Town' by Simon & Garfunkel (not a cover), black humour, mother smokers, 'Puffing Billy' joggers, mask-free Karen(s) and the lure of pharmodollars.
lyrics
Covid Friendly:
In my little town
I grew up believing
God keeps an eye on us all
Smoking in a child's face
In a Covid friendly situation
I can't use no track and trace
Cause my phone is on a disconnection
Jogging at a full pace
In a Covid friendly situation
She won't even mask her face
I can feel a note of disaffection
It's alright baby, it's ok
We'll isolate for fourteen days
It's alright baby, it's ok
Let me take your breath away
Smoking in a child's face
In a Covid friendly situation
I can't use no track and trace
Cause my phone is on a disconnection
Jogging at a full pace
In a Covid friendly situation
She won't even mask her face
I can feel a note of disaffection
It's alright baby, it's ok
We'll isolate for fourteen days
It's alright baby, it's ok
Let me take your breath away
Outro Chant:
Dollar, give me dollar
We've got a vaccination for ya
Dollar, give me dollar
We've got a vaccination for ya
Dollar, give me dollar
We've got a vaccination for ya
Dollar, give me dollar
We've got a vaccination for ya
Dollar, give me dollar
We've got a vaccination for ya
