(Day 8 of our 14-day Track and Trace self-isolation)

 

Crowds that drift their way down the street

Neighbours, friends and relatives that we can’t meet

Just watching the world from this window seat

We ain’t going nowhere.

 

Oo-wee the beer’s running dry

But tomorrow’s the day that the groceries come

Oo-wee, time ticks by

Slowly in the easy chair.

 

The garden’s all done now summer’s run

We’d sit outside but there ain’t no sun

Confined to barracks just ain’t no fun

So we ain’t going nowhere.

 

Oo-wee, ain’t goona lie

Going stir crazy just sat on my bum

Oo-wee, time ticks by

Slowly in the easy chair.

 

Self-isolated and just watching TV

Re-runs of Dallas and of Dynasty

Hourly cups of coffee and an hourly pee

We ain’t going nowhere.

 

Oo-wee, time drags by

When you’re scratching your arse and chewing gum

Oo-wee, my oh my

We ain’t going nowhere.
