Life during Lockdown

It’s miserable Monday

The start of the week

I’m gonna be good now 

And get something done

Tap tap tap tap Tuesday

Why can’t we agree

A misunderstanding 

That I didn’t see

CHORUS 

And everyone’s waiting

For no-one to call

A life during lockdown

This is so extraordinary?

When can we be ordinary? 

Wednesday cuts through me

Like butter and knives

So so many people

Missing so many lives 

Wake me up Thursday 

I’ve nothing to share

The newspaper’s empty

Is anyone there?

CHORUS 

Which takes me to Friday

The goddamned weekend 

Let’s pass it in silence

With virtual friends

Life during Lockdown - Video

 

 
Managing the intensity of lockdown living, living so closely and exclusively with one person and all that comes with that. The monotony, the bickering, the loneliness. And wanting it all to end - to be normal. “This is so extraordinary. When can we be ordinary?” This one channels our inner Damon Albarn from Think Tank-era Blur or Gorillaz. Beats and thick heavy bass with a crazy casio bossanova zing through the choruses.
