A song I wrote April of 2020, in the early days of the covid-19 quarantine.
Be Safe by Willy Grigg 4/13/2020
It’s the same old world we used to know
Not so very long ago
The streets and buildings all look familiar, but
We don’t get out much, anymore
We try to stay at home and relate
Cause everybody wants to be safe
I’m feeling pretty good right now, but
Not everybody is
I wonder who’ll be missing from the roll call
When we get over this
We try to do our part and think straight
Cause everybody wants to be safe
Day after day, everything was all the same
You never really notice, ‘til everything’s been changed
I hope we can work together
And keep our motives pure and true
And all the things I’m doing for me
I also do for you
We’re trying not to congregate
Cause everybody wants to be safe
