British Boris Johnson’s coronavirus mismanagement, parody song

This 10 May 2020 satiric music video from Britain is a parody of the song Stayin’ Alive by the Bee Gees.

It says about itself:

The Bo Jos – Stayin’ Alert

Boris Johnson rebrands his coronavirus messaging via his Bee Gees tribute act.

LYRICS:

Well you can tell by the way I botched corona
I’m a lazy man, no time for COBRA
Shaking hands and lockdown late
Get JCB to ventilate

And now it’s alright, it’s okay
The press just looked the other way
We floated herd immunity
And moved on with impunity

Whether you’re a codger or whether you’re a toddler
Keep stayin’ alert, stayin’ alert
Times are pretty hairy so be a little wary
Keep stayin’ alert, stayin’ alert
Bwah, ha, ha, ha, stayin’ alert, stayin’ alert
Bwah, ha, ha, ha, stayin’ alert

Well, shareholders are getting tense
And landlords still be needing rents
So we’ll hedge our bets and keep it vague
Then blame you lot when the plague
Gets a second wind, sorry chaps
Should’ve stayed at home, perhaps
And if it peaks a longer time
It’s all down to your conga line

Whether you’re a codger or whether you’re a toddler
Keep stayin’ alert, stayin’ alert
Try to keep on spacing ‘cause there’s no contact tracing
Keep stayin’ alert, stayin’ alert
Bwah, ha, ha, ha, stayin’ alert, stayin’ alert
Bwah, ha, ha, ha, stayin’ alert

Still getting nowhereNear 100,000 Daily COVID-19 tests
And those gowns we ordered
Turns out they’re all open-chest
So keep staying alert
