The COVID boat song

Dran-o, dran-o
Drano come and the COVID be gone.
Dray, me say drray, me say day, me say dray
Me say dray, me say dran-o
Drano come and the COVID go home

Inside all night not a drink of rum
Drano come and the COVID go home
Hear Donnie’s lies 'til de mornin' come
Drano come and the COVID go home

Come, mister President, tell me one more lie-o
Drano come and the COVID go home
Come, mister President, tell me one more lie
Drano come and the COVID go home

Hear Drano, Lysol and a whole bunch
Donnie’s lies and me wan' go home
Say Drano, Lysol and a whole bunch
Of Donnie lies and me wan' go home

Dray, me say dra-no
Drano come and the COVID- go home
Dray, me say dray, me say day, me say dra-no
Drano come and the COVID go home

With apologies to Harry Belafonte, an incredible progressive singer, social justice worker, and activist.

I hope you enjoy this bit of humor. Stay safe, and stay as sane as you can be.

For me the bonus was ::

hearing Belafonte in my head while he sported a great, sarcastic grin!
