Locked Up Locked Down (Coronavirus Statewide Lockdown) An Original Song

This song is for all the people who have been effected by social distancing or by lockdowns due to the Corona Virus.

In California we have a statewide lockdown and everyday we hear news of the latest victims of this virus.

My heart goes out to anyone who has lost someone or who has been effected by this virus.

For me, the mask mandates of Gavin Newsom and the other Governors have become a struggle between freedom and suppression of everything we enjoy as Americans.

Do we allow ourselves to loose everything over fear of catching a virus, or do we open up the economy again in spite of it?

Not even the Spanish Flu closed an economy and oppressed people around the world like the Coronavirus has done in the year of 2020.

Lyrics:

Chorus
Locked up, locked down,
I’ve been pushed around;
I’m tired of being a prisoner
But they have me in lock down.
Locked down…
Locked up…
Locked down...

Verse 1
Covid 19’s from a bat
Or a bio lab they say,
It’s gonna kill two million people,
Don’t go to church to pray.
It stays upon a surface
And even on your clothes,
You better practice social distancing
So no one is exposed.

Verse 2
I think it’s time to panic,
Shelves are empty at my store,
No Masks or toilet paper
I can’t find them anymore.
Restaurants do take out
The bars have been shut down,
They’ve even locked up all the parks
In my own hometown.

Bridge
The fears that used to haunt me
Don’t matter anymore,
Gonna bust these cell walls
Gonna break down the door.
I don’t wanna be stuck here
But I’m locked inside my house,
Can’t afford my mortgage,
I’m only waiting for the bail out.

Verse 3
Imprisoned in my home
Is not the life a choose,
Deaths around the world
Are plastered on the news,
Gonna break this curfew
And sometime I just may
Tell 'em all to stick it
I ain't living this away!
