Hungover feelings about being vaccinated become Lovett or Leave It submission

lyrics

I got my second Fauci ouchie
sure, I felt a little slouchy
I took a nap and I woke up somewhere else
The sun was shining brighter
and I swear my teeth feel whiter
but I don't know how to stop worrying about my health

Now it's two weeks later
my face is free like a burger's side of French-fried potaters

I've been aching for this feeling
ever since the world started reeling
when I pictured the end, I didn't picture this
but forward's always better, now's no time to reminisce

We're going vax, vax, vax to the future
vax, vax, vax to the future

I'll still mask up in a crowded place
I like to hide my frowny face
when strangers are standing closer than my friends
normal's never coming back
not after a year like that
but better beats bad 12 times outta 10

People will still get sick and die, I mean that's a given
people been dying as long as they've been living

And I know nothing ever really ends
what something is depends upon when
rivers change courses and rocks turn to sand
I know, I know, I understand

We're going vax, vax, vax to the future
vax, vax, vax to the future
vax, vax, vax to the future
vax, vax, vax to the future

I'm lucky I live in a wealthy nation
built through waves of immigration
rising boats all lifted by the tide
because the homes those hopeful people left
will have to live with extra death
long after my side effects subside

As the corporations sit on their vaccines
like a dragon on a pile of gold whose eyes are all green

and the virus continues to spread and change
and it's RNA proteins are rearranged
into the pattern than finally does the trick
and conquers the vaccine and makes us all sick again

We're going vax, vax, vax to the future
vax, vax, vax to the future
vax, vax, vax to the future
vax, vax, vax to the future
