The Lyrics

So....yeah. 2020 has been...yeah. And the one thing that made it more "...yeah" than anything else was COVID-19. The GOOD news is that the vaccine is coming. The BAD news is that plebes like me and you may not get it until spring at the earliest. Oh, what a wonderful Christmastime it would be if we got the shot by the holiday. Ah, well, here's to dreams. Share and Enjoy...and stay safe until it DOES come!
I want the COVID-19 cure for Christmas
Only the COVID-19 cure will do
Don't want a card or - even worse - the flu
But being safe from COVID is my top "prio", it's true

I want the COVID-19 cure for Christmas
I'm sure the anti-vaxxers want it, too
Give it first to docs and nurses, yessiree
But nicer would be getting "shot" on Christmas day, you see

I can see me now on Christmas morning
In the hosp'tal hall
Oh what joy and what surprise
To see Dr. Fauci's eyes
And have a needle at my beck-and-call

I want the COVID-19 cure for Christmas
Only the COVID-19 cure will do
Don't want the mumps, measles or some bronchitis
I want to stop the coronavirus
So get that vaccine out quickly, will you?!

Trump said the virus was just the flu, but then
Fauci says this kills with no discrimina-ti-on

The line when it comes out will stretch around the block
By then the nurses will be used to working 'round the clock

I can see me now on Christmas morning
In the hosp'tal hall
Oh what joy and what surprise
To see Dr. Fauci's eyes
And have a needle at my beck-and-call

I want the COVID-19 cure for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
Don't want the mumps, measles or some bronchitises
I want to stop the coronaviruses
So, for God's sake, get the thing out, would you?!?

Remember the time not many years ago when a flu vaccine was rushed and later it turned out that some kind of cronic narcolepsy was an unforseen side effect? More than 500 kids in my country alone have still not been cured from that.

Anyway, that said, the group that should go first are of course not doctors and nurses (they should come second), the group that needs to go first, publicly, are each and every one of our politicians and their families. Unless they are willing to put their own skin in the game on camera, each and every one of them, neither should anyone else.
