I Hunker Down

 

To the tune of "I Get Around". 

 

Down, down, hunker down,

I hunker down, yeah.

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down.

Look like a clown

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down

I'm shaking in fear. 

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down

Won't let anyone near.

 

If I have to get out, I always cover my face.

When I'm in a store, I keep a two-meter space.

If you think that my brain must be made out of stone,

I'm here to tell you that I'm hardly alone.

 

I hunker down

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down

Look like a clown

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down

I'm shaking in fear. 

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down

Won't let anyone near.

Wah, wa, ooh.

Wah, wa, ooh.

Wah, wa, ooh.

 

When Tony Fauci says, "Jump," my only question's, "How high?"

When they say we're imperiled, I would never ask why.

My reasoning powers might fall short, I confess,

So, I have to depend on what I'm told by the press.

 

I hunker down.

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down

Look like a clown

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down

I'm shaking in fear. 

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

 

Down, down, hunker down,

I hunker down, yeah.

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down.

Wah, wa, ooh.

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down.

Ooh

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down.

I hunker down.

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down.

Look like a clown.

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down.

Ooh.

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down.

Ooh.

Hunker down, down, down, I hunker down.
