Will we ever be able to go to the ballgame again
Or take my car out for a spin
Will the theaters ever open up for another show
Or are their doors forever closed
Am I allowed to hold my child's hand
Or dip my toes in the sand
Can I ever travel outside my yard
Who thought living easy would be so hard?
Planes gather dust in their aprons
Barnacles stuck to the boats on the beach
My brand new sneakers are still in the box
On the top shelf out of my reach
Lawyers got no cases to fight
Ministers got nowhere to preach
Carpenters got nothing to build
Professors got nowhere to teach
What about the libraries and all them books
Will they ever get another look
And without restaurants, will we lose our taste
Will all that food go to waste
And how will people meet their lifelong mate
If they can't go on a date
This don't seem like much of a life to live
If all we do is give give give
Planes gather dust in their aprons
Barnacles stuck to the boats on the beach
My brand new sneakers are still in the box
On the top shelf out of my reach
Lawyers got no cases to fight
Ministers got nowhere to preach
Carpenters got nothing to build
Professors got nowhere to teach
This new way of life won't work for me
But it's a great sci-fi movie
It's Starship Troopers mixed with The Thing
With a dab of Lord of the Rings
If Terminator and Avatar
F*cked Dude, Where's My Car
It would look a lot like right now
To eat a burger, you must buy the cow
Planes gather dust in their aprons
Barnacles stuck to the boats on the beach
My brand new sneakers are still in the box
On the top shelf out of my reach
Lawyers got no cases to fight
Ministers got nowhere to preach
Carpenters got nothing to build
Professors got nowhere to teach
