We Threw Zerocovid All Away

We once held it in our hands
We said we will never let it back in
But we were stupid
We treated covid like fools
We threw zerocovid all away

We once had AFL stadiums full of people with no masks
Hospitals with no concern for covid
We must have been mad
We never knew what we had
Until we threw zerocovid all away

Zerocovid is all there is
It kept us safe, it can’t be denied
No matter what you think about it
You just won’t be able to do without it
Take a tip from lots of people who have tried

So if you find somehow to get back to zerocovid
Take it to your heart, don’t let it stray
For one thing that’s certain
If you don't, you will surely be a-hurtin’
