Well I saw the invader come
Heralding fear and death
Not with fire and gun
But on the droplets of our children's breath
How can we defend ourselves
From an enemy we can't see?
There's no vaccine, no cure,
Because we're the disease

Much as I love you all
I think we're heading for lockdown

No one's ever seen empty streets like these
Not since the 2nd world war
Pubs closed, everything cancelled
There's not much fun any more
Can we really beat this thing
Blowing kisses by videophone?
It's tricky to stand together
Bunkered inside our homes

Much as I love you all
I think we're heading for lockdown
Headed for lockdown

So they're telling us not to worry
But they're calling for volunteers
Do they think we seasoned old campaigners
Still wet behind the ears?
I'm gonna crack that single malt
That I've been keeping back for years
When this is over
When this is done
Maybe then we'll carry on

So I messaged my lawyer:
Where do I send my claim?
Things don't just happen anymore
Must be someone to blame
But all I got was an out-of-office
Which gave me cheer:
If we're in no state to litigate
That's one less thing to fear

And, bad as you think it is,
I think we're headed for lockdown
Headed for lockdown

Because they're telling us not to worry
But they're calling for volunteers
Do they think we seasoned old campaigners
Wet behind the ears?
I'm gonna crack that single malt
That I've been keeping back for years
When this is over
When this is done
Maybe then we'll carry on

So they're telling us not to worry
But they're calling for volunteers
Do they think we seasoned old campaigners
Wet behind the ears?
I'm gonna crack that single malt
That I've been keeping back for years
When this is over
When this is done
Maybe buy another one...
