Schools are a dilemma
To open, to remine shut
Politicians lie
Scientists clarify
There are three weeks
For the design of new techniques
Masks, visors
We wait on advisors
While Covid continues to grow
Will our schools be safe?
Will our teachers be safe?
Will our children be safe?
Does anyone in power care
They just want their vote share
People continue to die
We have a great track and trace
Hold on – is that really true
Yesterday we had
Today we haven’t
tomorrow we will have
Politicians lie
People continue to die
The Clown continues to bluster
Idiots continue to cluster
Covid continues to spread
And our lives hang on a thread
But let’s open the schools and bugger the consequences
People will continue to die.
