This is doing the rounds in Scotland

Tae a virus

Twa months ago, we didna ken
Yer name or ocht aboot ye
But lots of things have changed since then
I really must salute ye

Yer spreading rate is quite intense
Yer feeding like a gannet
Disruption caused is so immense
Ye’ve shaken oor wee planet

Corona used tae be a beer
They garnished it wae limes
But noo it’s filled us aw wae fear
These days are scary times

Nae shakin hawns, or peckin lips
It’s whit they aw advise
But scrub them weel, richt tae the tips,
That’s how we’ll aw survive

Just stay inside the hoose, ye bide
Nae sneakin oot for strolls
Just check the lavvy every oor
An' stock-take yer loo rolls

Oor holidays have been pit aff
Noo that’s the Jet2 patter
Pit oan yer thermals, have a laugh
An' paddle 'doon the watter'

Canary Isles; no' fur a while
Nae need for suntan cream
An' aw because o' this wee bug
We ken tae be...19

The boredom surely will set in
But have a read, or doodle
Or plan yer menu for the month
Wi' 95 pot noodles

When these run oot, just look aboot
A change, it would be nice
We’ve beans and pasta by the ton
An' twenty stane o rice.

So dinny think ye'll wipe us oot
Aye true, a few have died
Bubonic, bird flu, an' TB
They came, they left, they tried

Ye might be gallus noo ma freen'
As ye jump fae cup tae cup
But when we get oor vaccine made
Yer number will be up
