A global pandemic is not something new:
1600s had plague, 1918 the flu.
But there’s no need to panic, let’s not lose our nerve:
There are things we can all do to flatten the curve.
Flatten the curve, flatten the curve,
There are things we can all do to flatten the curve.
Just wash you ten fingers, stop touching your face.
By staying inside we can all win this race.
Maintaining some distance is not a hard task:
Keep your sneeze to yourself when you’re wearing a mask.
Wearing a mask, wearing a mask
Keep your sneeze to yourself when you’re wearing a mask
So let’s flatten the curve, flatten the curve
There are things we can all do to flatten the curve.
I know it’s a stressful thing, sitting at home:
We all miss our freedom, and kids need to roam.
Don’t think those precautions a joke or a curse:
Being on ventilation is so much more worse.
So much more worse, so much more worse
Being on ventilation is certainly worse.
So keep wearing your mask, wearing your mask
Keep your sneeze to yourself when you’re wearing your mask
So let’s flatten the curve, flatten the curve
There are things we can all do to flatten the curve.
Now don’t give a shit when some idiots say
Those who died of this bug would have died anyway,
Or Bill Gates is to blame, or 5G needs to stop:
Leave the talking to experts and shut your damn gob.
Shut your damn gob, shut your damn gob,
Leave the talking to experts and shut your damn gob,
Cause so much more worse, so much more worse
Being on ventilation is so much more worse
So keep wearing your mask, wearing your mask
Keep your sneeze to yourself when you’re wearing your mask
So let’s flatten the curve, flatten the curve
There are things we can all do to flatten the curve.
Flatten the curve, flatten the curve …
There are things we can all do to flatten the curve.
