It’s a 1929 rewind
“Brother can you spare a dime?”
Once again
It’s depression time
And I’ma about to
Lose my mind
Cuz there’s no job
For me to find

So blame it on
The new disease
That’s  the reason
We’re on our knees
Begging for help
Somebody please!
Cuz all we want
Is a little ease

Is that too much
For us to ask?
Hope I’m not
Gong too fast
See there’s no *****
Inside my flask
And I’m **** tired
Of wearing this mask

Wish that it would
Go away,
Open up now!
We hear ‘em say
But will that take
Covid away?
Or guarantee
That it will stay?
