about

As the official part of the pandemic draws to a close, I would like to say that I am a little disappointed in people and authorities, not taking enough care in crowded and/or health environments. A lot of people are still getting sick, and now we know that Covid and reinfections with Covid, are a cause for chronic disease and worse quality of life. There are millions of people worldwide experiencing Long Covid, and the number just keeps growing.

I think more care should be taken in regards to air quality, and hospitals should still exercise caution because many get Covid when admitted there, and now no masks are required in most. Same goes for schools and kindergartens. Masks should still be worn, when symptomatic, to prevent transmission, and protect others.

This song is a half serious, half humorous attempt to deal with this subject matter.

It was recorded live, without any edits, at same time as a video:

lyrics

(Okay, this is the mask song)
I cough on you and then you cough on me
And we'll be sick together, miserable but free.
I really need to know: is this too much to ask
For you and all your friends to wear a motherfucking mask

YOLO, YOLO, I guess that's what they say.
You only get one life so you should live it up today
But darling can you share why it's a hopeless task
For you and all your friends to wear a stupid fucking mask

Cause if you stay protected you might not get infected
Make a mask part of your plan like they do it in Japan
(Konnichiwa!)

You say you're in the know and that you truly care
But when it comes to action we ain't getting anywhere
And people get infected and then for air they gasp
Cause you and all your friends rejected wearing a mask

Let's be good citizens and treat each other well
So we don't all collectively remain in COVID hell
So hate me if you must, we're going nowhere fast
Please do your duty and put on a motherfucking mask

(Okay, here's the opera part)
Let's make it out alive and wear N-95
So no one gets Long Covid, and everyone survives
Reduce the viral load and build a world of trust
So I don't have to ask you to put on a fucking mask
