Vaccine Shanty

There once was a time when we roamed free
We could meet our friends and have a party
The virus came and hit us hard
So we're in lockdown now!

Soon may the vaccine come
To bring us hugs from our loved ones
One day when the zooming is done
We'll grab our coats and go

The first two months it was no bore
We had family time we could explore
Our NHS is something to adore
And we clapped so take a bow

Soon may the vaccine come
To bring us hugs from our loved ones
One day when the zooming is done
We'll grab our coats and go

There are no jobs, were on furlough
Every thing is closed, no where to go
When will it end, nobody knows
We're stuck in a big black hole

Soon may the vaccine come
To bring us hugs from our loved ones
One day when the zooming is done
We'll grab our coats and go

We all had some food just to help out
And met masked friends in the park whilst out
The schools returned but another time out
A Bad decision from our Bojo

Soon may the vaccine come
To bring us hugs from our loved ones
One day when the zooming is done
We'll grab our coats and go

Its been a year, more lock downs called
Insurrection has been moth balled
The weathers struck, and were getting cold
When will the beer pumps flow

Soon may the vaccine come
To bring us hugs from our loved ones
One day when the zooming is done
We'll grab our coats and go

As far as I know, the fights still on
As the virus mutates, it affects everyone
There is another jab that will work for all
To hearten the nation, friends and all

Soon may the vaccine come
To bring us hugs from our loved ones
One day when the zooming is done
We'll grab our coats and go
