[Can be sung to tune of ‘Don’t Stand So Close To Me’]
[Gracias to The Police]
by Álvaro Garza, MD MPH

Young person, the subject
of COVID infection.
It scares her so badly,
just wants some protection.

Stay six, stay six feet,
stay six feet far from me.
Stay six, stay six feet,
stay six feet far from me.

Inside her, there’s virus.
The girl is infected.
She’s coughing, has fever;
Not sleeping, not rested.

Wear your, wear your mask,
wear your mask close to me.
Wear your, wear your mask,
wear your mask close to me.

Her friends are afraid now
that she infected them.
They partied together,
don’t want now to condemn.

Don’t touch, don’t touch your,
don’t touch your face so much.
Don’t touch, don’t touch your,
don’t touch your face so much.

Temptation, frustration,
so bad it makes her cry.
To see him out waiting,
he has to say goodbye.

Wash your, wash your hands,
wash your hands frequently.
Wash your, wash your hands,
wash your hands frequently.

It’s too late, he kissed her,
he starts to shake and cough.
Just like the old man who
got COVID and passed off.

Get your, get your co,
get your covid vaccine.
Get your, get your co,
get your COVID vaccine.

Stay six, stay six feet [please stay six feet far from me]
stay six feet far from me.

Wear your, wear your mask [please wear your mask close to me]
wear your mask close to me.

Don’t touch, don’t touch your [please don’t touch your face so much]
don’t touch your face so much.

Wash your, wash your hands [please wash your hands frequently]
wash your hands frequently.

Get your, get your co [please get your COVID vaccine]
Get your COVID vaccine.
