(sung to “I’ll Be Home for Christmas”)
Let’s stay home for Christmas
Let the Zoom beams fly
Let’s stay home for Christmas
So none of us will die.
(sung to “Jingle Bells”)
Get one shot
Get two shots
Vaccinations near
Tell your friends
Tell loved ones
Safe no need to fear
(sung to “Here Comes Santa Claus)
There is Santa Claus
There is Santa Claus
With a mask on his face
Social distancing
Proper hygiene
Stay secure in our place
He knows the virus
Poses a grave threat
For which we must understand
No herd immunity
Without a vaccine
And that we must all demand
Oh, follow the science
That’s what the doctors say
And now we must all take heed
Santa will come to you
Leaving the toys
We must take Santa’s lead
We can get through this
To some normal sense
If we follow this map
Maybe then next year
We’ll be together
While we all sit on Santa’s lap.
(sung to “Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer”)
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
Didn’t get flu shots this year
Now he’s in bed with fever
Body aches and diarrhea
All of the other reindeer
They got their flu shots instead
They brought their friend some chicken soup
Making sure that he’s well fed
Rudolph vows from now till then
He will get his shots
So he won’t miss Christmas Eve
And the little tots.
Rudolph will now take good care
Remembering to guide the sleigh
When he takes care of himself
Letting science lead the way.
(sung to “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town”)
You better wear masks, you better stay safe
Better wash hands, and distance in place
Covid-19 crisis alert!
Conspiracy theories swirl from the Right
They say it’s a hoax and itching to fight
Covid-19 crisis alert!
One gets it in groups outdoors
One gets it when inside
A vaccine now is on its way
But it’s not yet stemmed the tide
Oh! You better wear masks, you better stay safe
Better wash hands, and distance in place
Covid-19 crisis alert!
