Do They Know Its Lockdown

It's Covid time, no-one's feeling very fab,
At Covid time, we wear a mask and have the jab
And in our world of Covid, we could spread  it to everyone 
Don't throw your arms around them at Covid time

But stay at home, even self isolate,
At Covid time - no risks, do not leave it to fate

There's a world outside your bubble
And it's lacking our pubs and beer
Where the only ale that's flowing
Is some homebrew by Ray Mears

And the Covid app that pings
Heralds two weeks now stuck at home

Well tonight thank Gove my pint's head's little foam

And there won't be open pubs in town this Lockdown time
The greatest gift we hope is bottled beer
The Messiah drops by
There is no need to cry 
Do they know it's Lockdown time at all?

Cheers to you…
Raise a glass to Dave and Debs,
Cheers to them
Orders by text, or web,

Do they know its lockdown time at all?

Drink the Beer!
Drink the Beer!
Drink the Beer!
Drink the Beer!
Drink the Beer!
Let them know it's Drinking time again
Drink the Beer!
Let them know it's Drinking time again
Drink the Beer!
Let them know it's Drinking time again
Drink the Beer!
Let them know it's Drinking time again
