RAGING CORONAVIRUS RAG
[to the tune of “Jambalaya”]
Goodbye Ma, bye Grandpa time to die, y’all.
Millionaires and billionaires can’t take a shortfall.
You should spend right to the end even as YOU crawl.
Sonuvabitch, the filthy rich need to have IT all.
COVID-19 makes you scream as you’re dyin’.
But you’ll make Wall Street richer; that’s no lyin’.
If you stay home or wear a mask, you ain’t tryin’.
Sonuvabitch, the filthy rich won’t be cryin’.
[chorus – repeated throughout]
Back to school little kids infect your teachers.
And you mega-churching fools, go kill your preachers.
Get outside like no one’s died crowd the bleachers
Sonuvabitch, the filthy rich despise poor creatures.
Doctors say to stay away from each other
But your freedom ‘s too important don’t be bothered.
Keep spreading sickness and death to one another.
Sonuvabitch, the filthy rich won’t see you suffer.
The GOP cannot see pain and sorrow.
They’ll be damned they have no plan for tomorrow.
Holy Cow! Profit now — beg, steal or borrow.
Sonuvabitch, the filthy rich don’t play fair. No!
EVIL UNMASKED
[to “The Yellow Rose of Texas”]
How could I have hurt you,
we haven’t even met?
But now that we’re together,
you’re wishing me my death.
It’s a scientific fact
that face masks can save lives.
So, when you’re going maskless,
you don’t care who lives or dies.
Are you a geezer as I am
who’s grown too tired to live?
Or do you hate your mom and dad
for what they could not give [you]?
Or is your high priority
increasing rich folks’ wealth?
Your careless, uncaring attitude
jeopardizes all our health.
Politicizing medicine
is an exercise for fools.
And those who go along with that
should be sent back to school.
Loyalty to ignorance
takes politics too far.
Endorsing murderous intent
show us just what you are.
How could I have hurt you,
we haven’t even met?
But now that we’re together,
you’re wishing me my death.
It’s a scientific fact
that face masks can save lives.
So, when you’re going maskless,
you don’t care who lives or dies.
