There’s a virus on the loose When there’s a virus right nearby You must avoid a bad infection So a mask is put in place A bra for your face And your breath stinks up your nose Here’s the new reality If you are a non-essential Working from your living room In pajamas using Zoom Making sure to close your fly There’s a virus right nearby Bridge I can’t wait til it is over I’ll need a vacation Subsidize the Nobel prize For an inoculation Kevin Ahern’s Wildly Popular Metabolic Melodies (www.davincipress.com) Page 6 of 427 When there’s a virus near your mouth You will not know of its presence That is why it is the case You should never touch your face Not a finger not a thumb And you’ll be much better for it You’ll survive, congratulations Just be careful where you eat Stay apart at least six feet And, dear God, avoid the south There’s a virus near your mouth Kevin Ahern’s Wildly Popular Metabolic Melodies (www.davincipress.com) Page 7 of 427 Grandma Got Infected by That Virus (To the tune of “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer”) Copyright © 2020 Kevin Ahern Grandma got infected by that virus Cuz they opened up her state too soon They claimed it was fine for all the people But I don’t think my grandma was immune She’d been feeling very happy Baking cookies and some bread But then she got that awful fever Before we knew what happened she was dead Meanwhile the politicians voted For that giant company payout If they’re of and by and for the people Then why aren’t we the ones they’re bailing out? Grandma got infected by that virus Cuz they opened up her state too soon They claimed it was fine for all the people But I don’t think my grandma was immune Kevin Ahern’s Wildly Popular Metabolic Melodies (www.davincipress.com) Page 8 of 427 Beaver Believer (to the tune of “Daydream Believer”) Copyright © 2018 Kevin Ahern Oh I get high. Such a grin Every time the Beavers win The orange and black’s em-bedded in my skin From the Gill - basketball To the labs in Cordley Hall So much to say, now where should I begin? Chorus Cheer on Benny Beav Students will achieve They’re all Beaver Believers With an ace up their sleeves Innovate and dream Linus Pauling’s on the team There’s not any more that one might need When Ed Ray tells everyone That the best is yet to come You darn sure better know that they’ll succeed Kevin Ahern’s Wildly Popular Metabolic Melodies (www.davincipress.com) Page 9 of 427 Chorus Cheer on Benny Beav Students will achieve Since they’re Beaver Believers With an ace up their sleeves Chorus Cheer for Benny Beav Dump on Donald Duck We’re all Beaver Believers And those other guys suck Kevin Ahern’s Wildly Popular Metabolic Melodies (www.davincipress.com) Page 10 of 427
