Poem
Covid rules explained About the covid 19, in case things don’t seem clear This is what we need to do, so we don’t live in fear We can mix with different households, as long as we’re not seven Unless of course we’ve gone to work and bubbled with eleven So if you have five children, then I’m sorry but you’re stuffed No one can come in your house, and you can’t go out, it’s tough If you are all together you can’t go for a meal So just forget that eat out scheme, you’re too many for that deal You could maybe have two tables, but you’re not allowed to stray If you stay where they have seated you the virus goes away You can’t mix with the people who’s household you are in But the waiter can bring you a drink, he’s lifted by the rim Then there’s local lockdowns, don’t even meet in groups of six If you’re from different households you simply cannot mix Not even in a garden, the virus will get you there But if you go out for a walk it simply doesn’t care If you’re in the pub after ten the virus will descend But all hop on the underground and it will not offend Before ten you will be ok, but please don’t sing or dance Coz if you have too much fun, you just don’t stand a chance A hairdresser can cut your hair and even trim your beard But if you want to see a doctor, face to face is feared You must explain on the phone what symptoms you can see You may as well just google, ask Alexa or Siri If you want a big Christmas feast, you have to kill the cat Coz theres thirty at a funeral and it will stay away from that You can’t go to a theatre, but you can sit on a plane As long as when you come back you don’t go out again You could take a different route, the virus then out smarted No need for isolation, as you detoured it departed And when you get your hair done don’t ask for a tea As the virus lives in their mugs, but the coffee shops are Covid free If you are in any doubt what rules apply to you Just follow all the MP’s, they’ll show you what to do.
