I don't know what to think about this virus It started in China, now everybody in America is hidin' There's no groceries, 'cause people start to panic and buy it The shelter empty, the ones who plenty, already stockpiling Y'all making memes, think it's funny? Wait a week 'til the riots Wait a month 'til the only way to eat is be violent It's not the sickness that's scary, it's all the people who're violent The government's lyin' They're trying to keep us calm through the sirens We know it's for real And now all the pharmaceutical giants Don't have the cure that they can sell you So now everyone's dying There's no vaccines and medication made that can fight it I guess it's time to pray to God, we can't rely on the science And everyone around me in a mask and some gloves The stock market crashed, and the banks 'bout to bust Tell us "sanitize our hands, this will pass It's a bug, stay inside, you'll be fine" 'Til we're trapped there for months It's a ghost town We're in this together They're closing all the stores down SongtexteWe're headin' for shelter It's a war now they'll always remember We're locking all our doors down We're sticking together It's a ghost town This a pandemic, but we don't listen to the news 'Cause they lied to us for years so how we know that this the truth? And most of us are young enough to think that we're immune So we just pass it on to people who won't survive it like you It's either worse than they're telling us or it's nothing at all But the schools are shut down and ghosttowning them all They go quarantine the city, block the road out of dodge Then tell us leaving our homes is actually breaking the law This is just the beginning, you know it's gotta get worse If the doctors get sick the hospitals won't work The conspiracy theories all sound like facts, that's for sure But the fact is, we're trapped on this planet called Earth And the bleach gone, the bread gone, the water sold out The meat gone, the milk gone, the pasta sold out Don't leave anything for anyone, you hoard it for yourself You'd rather tell them "go to hell" than be a man and go and help It's a ghost town We're in this together They're closing all the stores down We're headin' for shelter It's a war now they'll always remember We're locking all our doors down We're sticking together It's a ghost town We're hoping for the best but we're preparing for the worst There's one thing we're not scared of: it's hard work We're up against an enemy that doesn't have a face There's no bombs we can drop There's nowhere we can aim There's no soldiers to stop with a tank at the gates There's no cure that we've got or a pill we can take There's no food, it's been bought The truth is we're afraid We sit inside our rooms and we pray It's a ghost town We're in this together They're closing all the stores down We're headin' for shelter It's a war now they'll always remember We're locking all our doors down We're sticking together It's a ghost town Aus Songtexte Mania
