Friends that Don’t Go Places
(to the tune of Garth Brooks’ “Friends in Low Places”)

You can tell by our roots
We still telecommute
And yes, we do our own hair.
Meeting on Zoom,
Alone in our room,
I wear a nice shirt and my underwear…

Lines under my eyes,
From those N95’s
And my ears are both numb from the pain,
I don’t know about you,
But I’ll be glad when we’re through,
But you’ll never hear me complain….

‘Cause I’ve got friends that don’t go places
Unless it’s the grocery store
With masks on our faces
Stayin’ six feet away,
So, we’ll be okay.
Yeah, we’re not big on hand sanitizer
So we’re signed up now for Moderna or Pfizer
‘Cause I’ve got friends that don’t go places.

Well, I hope I’m not wrong
That it won’t be too long,
Until things are just like before,
But in the meantime,
I’ll keep going online,
And have deliveries sent to my door.
Hey, I don’t mean
To cause a big scene
But I need your Netflix password again,
And I’ll sit on my behind
For the very next hour,
And we’ll start to binge…

‘Cause I’ve got friends that don’t go places
Unless it’s the grocery store
With masks on our faces
Stayin’ six feet away,
So we’ll be okay.
Yeah, we’re not big on hand sanitizer
So we’re signed up now for Moderna or Pfizer
‘Cause I’ve got friends that don’t go places.

Yes, I’ve got friends that don’t go places
Unless it’s the grocery store
With masks on our faces
Stayin’ six feet away,
So we’ll be okay.
Yeah, we’re not big on hand sanitizer
So we’re signed up now for Moderna or Pfizer
‘Cause I’ve got friends that don’t go places…
