Thanksgiving All Year Long
It won’t be cooked today
These holidays are different
People stay away
People stay away
Wear masks when going out
It’s hard to hear them talking
Sometimes we need to shout
Sometimes we need to shout
And empty out our rage
At those who simple won’t do right
The virus is their wage
The virus is their wage
Of thinking they’re immune
or follow bad examples
of those leaving us fair soon
Of those leaving us fair soon
We bid no fond farewell
Our country suffered at his hand
For some a living hell
Yes,
The turkey’s in the freezer
But it won’t be in there long
Watch ourselves this winter
Then,
Thanksgiving’s all year long!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Nice telling of the times and nice conclusion. Nothing is the same but some things never change.
