Deep In My Heart

I'M STILL HERE 2020
Parody Lyric by Stephen Cole
Music by that other Stephen

WHO'S EVER KNOWN A 
TIME THAT WAS QUITE LIKE THIS YEAR?
BUT WE'RE HERE
STARRING "CORONA"
(AND WE DO NOT MEAN THE BEER)
BUT WE'RE HERE

WE PROVED WE'RE UP TO ANY TASK
AND I LOOK YOUNGER IN A MASK
MY MASK IS SPANGLED AND SHEER
AND I'M HERE

COLLEGES CLOSED? 
I GOT MY DEGREE IN MY ROOM
AND I'M HERE
NO TIME FOR GYMTIME
BUT I DID ZOOMBA ON ZOOM
AND I'M HERE

WE'VE BEEN IN LOCKDOWN,  HEAVEN KNOWS
WEEPING AS BROADWAY HAD TO CLOSE
I'VE HAD A Q-TIP UP MY NOSE
AND I FEAR
SIX FEET AWAY IS TOO NEAR
I'LL STAY HERE

WE'VE GOTTEN THROUGH NO PURELL!
NO TOILET PAPER!
PUBLIX WITH LINES ROUND THE BLOCK
WHEN YOU'VE BEEN THRU NO PURELL!
OR TOILET PAPER
NOTHING ELSE SEEMS LIKE A SHOCK

WE COULDN'T GET FLICKS
ALL CINEPLEXES ARE SHUT
BUT WE'RE HERE
THANK GOD FOR NETFLIX
OR WE'D HAVE GONE OFF OUR NUT
BUT WE'RE HERE



WE TWEET ON TWITTER
INSTAGRAM
BUT ARE WE BITTER?
(WELL, I AM)
WHATSAP WITH SNAP CHAT AND TIKTOK?
OH MY DEAR!
I'VE BEEN IN JAIL ON FACEBOOK
AND I'M HERE

I WOKE UP GROUCHY
SWEAT PANTS TO WORK AND TO BED
BUT I'M HERE
LISTENED TO FAUCI
I WASHED MY HANDS TILL THEY BLED
AND I'M HERE

CHURCHES WERE CLOSED, STILL I SAID MASS 
HEY 2020, KISS MY ASS!
I WILL NOT SHED ONE MORE TEAR
CAUSE I'M HERE

WE'VE GOTTEN THROUGH PROTESTS
AND RIOTS AND PROUD BOYS
HURRICANES, FIRES AND SMOKE
WHEN YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH PROTESTS
AND RIOTS AND PROUD BOYS
EVERYTHING ELSE IS A JOKE

EACH NIGHT AT SEVEN
BANGING OUR POTS TO SAY THANKS
AND WE'RE HERE
LOOKING TO HEAVEN
WONDERING WHAT'S IN OUR BANKS
BUT WE'RE HERE

WE LIVED THROUGH PLENTY...IS IT DONE?
DRINK UP TO TWENTY-TWENTY ONE 
LOOK WHAT YOU'VE GAINED...FORTY POUNDS IN YOUR REAR
BABY JUST SHOUT IT OUT LOUD 
THAT YOU'RE HERE
LOOK WHO'S HERE
WE'RE STILL HERE!
