hey, remember when I said Flobots - Quarantine was my song for the quarantine?. Well, they just made an experimental mix with fresh and poignant lyrics 🎶

this is live from the center of the self-imposed quarantine mountain ranges gorgeous contrasting with the horror scenes in hospitals turn to the authorities? impossible ventilators finite supply so now the stocks are low

stocks are low alleged leaders irresponsible narcissistic tantrums run amok until my thoughts explode soccer stadiums and hockey rinks turn into ICUs the anchorman announces his infection on the nightly news

and now the camera man’s been eulogized scuba-diver gear for all occasions alcoholics saving everclear for the sanitizer evangelizers blind to revelations but it was never clearer who the antichrist is

in a crisis praying for a righteous few right hand advisors but no time to fantasize so planet-wide we panic buy but if you dream of genocide prepare to see your war machines destroyed and soldiers redeployed to bedsides for the quarantine

and from bed -sty to the Florida keys lord please provide some respite or Jesus christ some test kits because we’re losing patience fast we’re losing patients fast nurses child hand stitching diapers into facial masks

now entire nations stand ovations from the balcony the outcome we design sword to plowshare is the alchemy don’t ever doubt that even less then 10 can form a crowd and speak and salvage life from death’s grip and change the world palpably

so stay the hell home clean your cell phone bury seeds cultivate sustainability from solidarity and mutual assistance calling out the price gouge stalling all evictions unless it’s from the white house

now focus on the frontline response and disadvantaged to go beyond the bunker flags turn into bandanas let’s purify the planet let’s revoke the dirty standards one cough can make Ivanka Trump vote for Bernie Sanders
