the COVID-19 SHUFFLE…
(Reimagined Tribute to Hot n Cold by Katy Perry)

* Awesome Original by: Katy Perry, Max Martin, & Łukasz Gottwald

** Upon hearing the diagnosis of COVID-19, I wrongly assumed that spending the past decade of my life fighting against a multitude of ailments would have better prepared me for the fight that was to come, but alas, it did not. Furthermore, I had received 3 vaccines prior to catching this particular ailment. Although I continue to quarantine and rest, I still offer up this humble yet reimagined tribute, dedicated (simply):
– to every person on Earth who has contracted COVID-19 at any point in time, & is, or has ever been previously, scrambling to fight in the trenches with the rest of us
– to every person who has lost family members or friends in this harrowing battle, or who have been otherwise deeply scathed or tormented by its torture
– to every nation, as we must come together with shared medical wisdom and profound love for each other in order to stand any chance of defeating our common enemy: the unnecessary physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and psychological suffering that is intrinsic to all illness!!!

Lyrics:

In these tough times
Pandemic plagued
This whole world
I wrote this little script:
Call it the COVID-19 SHUFFLE
Don’t forget to distance socially
Quarantine, feel chest pains
All around the world, we’re waging war on this disease…

Fevers spike
Sweat pours forth
Shaking from chills
Gastro encores
Hang in there, please don’t doubt
You’re strong enough to battle this out
All my energy’s wiped
Brain fog messing with minds
Projectile vomiting
So yuck
Aches stabbing at guts
Thankful to all the world’s doctors, oh so!
Nurses too!
And for my family’s support
Fevers spike
Sweat pours forth
Shaking from chills
Gastro encores
Hang in there
Please don’t doubt
You’re strong enough to battle this
Out out out out
Out out out out

Pray to God, faithfully
Despite the toilet bowl hugging
Divine healer since the days
Of the plagues and leprosy
From this we learn
To hydrate
With living water
Eternally refreshing
Press on through
Headaches, congestion, sore throats & fatigue

Fevers spike
Sweat pours forth
Shaking from chills
Gastro encores
Hang in there, please don’t doubt
You’re strong enough to battle this out
All my energy’s wiped
Brain fog messing with minds
Projectile vomiting
So yuck
Aches stabbing at guts
Thankful to all of this world’s doctors, oh so!
Nurses too!
And for my family’s support
Fevers spike
Sweat pours forth
Shaking from chills
Gastro encores
Hang in there, please don’t doubt
You’re strong enough to battle this
Out out out

Love the world’s the medical community
With its miracle workers
But still no luck in acquiring immunoglobulin or those sweet antivirals
Some try Ivermectin
Others vitamins
But without Phenergan, I’d lose my my my my my mind
In these tough times
We’re pandemic plagued
This whole world

Fevers spike
Sweat pours forth
Shaking from chills
Gastro encores
Hang in there, please don’t doubt
You’re strong enough to battle this out
All my energy’s wiped
Brain fog messing with minds
Projectile vomiting
So yuck
Aches stabbing at guts
Fevers spike
Sweat pours forth
Shaking from chills
Gastro encores
Hang in there, please don’t doubt
You’re strong enough to battle this out
All my energy’s wiped
Brain fog messing with minds
Projectile vomiting
So yuck
Aches stabbing at guts
Thankful to all of this world’s doctors, oh so!
Nurses too!
And for my family’s support
Fevers spike
Sweat pours forth
Shaking from chills
Gastro encores
Hang in there, please don’t doubt
You’re strong enough to battle this
Out out out out
Out out out out
