lyrics

I had a little bird
Its name was Enza
I opened the window
And in flew Enza

You are the upper
I am the lower
We are teeth

Bread lines or panicked bread buying
Nothing in between
Stay away or physically comfort me
Not interested in a mean

You are the upper
I am the lower
We are teeth
You are the upper
I am the lower
We are teeth

Persistence is decadence
Eventual pestilence
Fear, an accelerant that threatens endurance

Sustainability was always a dream
Manifesting as multiple schemes

Hope, a recurring theme in the cycles of entropy

When should I panic?(in the cycles of entropy)
When should I shoot?(in the cycles of entropy)
What should I horde?(in the cycles of entropy)
And when should I loot?

Won't catch it in the woods, but you can catch something else
A will to quarantine, true social distancing

We have a dog, but not a leash
We panic upon its release
Our loving mutt's not what we think
We live where it sharpens its teeth

We have a pig, it eats anything
It floods our pen with its offspring
We think they're cute, we should rethink
Our lives now controlled by their stink

Sometimes it just takes a plague(x4)

We have a bird, we've clipped its wings
It stays in its cage and never sings
Depends on us for the food we bring
Unaware it'd die if set free

Sometimes it just takes a plague(x4)

I wear the mask(x5)
It scares the children
Where each child wears a different mask

I wear the mask(x8)

I am the upper
You are the lower
We are teeth
I am the upper
You are the lower
We are teeth

I had a little bird
Its name was Enza
I opened the window
And in flew Enza
