Dear Don Henley ... I updated your song - The Joys of Corona (a parody)


The Joys of Corona

Nobody on the road
Nobody on the streets
I feel it in the air
Coronoa’s got that reach
Empty shops, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I’m dropping food at your house
Cause you’re quarantined at home

And I can see you
You’re blurry there behind the glass
You’ve got dirty hair and an N95 mask
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the joys of corona are gone

I never will forget those nights
Out in a bar drinking beer and Beam
I remember how it made me crazy
I remember how it made you mean
Now I don’t understand just how you got infected
But babe you’re gonna get better
I’m going to keep you safe and well fed

And I can see you
You’re blurry there behind the glass
You’ve got dirty hair and an N95 mask
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the joys of corona are gone

Out on the road today
I saw a Walking Dead sticker on a Cadillac
A little voice inside my head said
“That’s not where we’re at, not where we’re at”
I thought everyone knew what six feet was, what did I know

But social outings aren’t gone forever
We’ve just got another month to go

And I can see you
You’re blurry there behind the glass
You’ve got dirty hair and an N95 mask
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the joys of corona are gone
