Safety Mask

We can mask if we want to
We can leave our grins behind
‘Cause the grins spread SARS in restaurants and bars
And in Walmart checkout lines

Say, we can mask where we want to
Any place and any time
It’s a new tradition, chains of transmission
Breakin’ ‘em in real time

 And we can mask...

We can mask when we want to
Night is young and so am I
And we can mask in style, step out for a while
In our black N95s

Say, we can mask if we want to
And if we don’t, nobody will
‘Cause it’s social proof of pandemic truth
Other maskers need to feel

We can mask, we can mask
Doing that infection control
We can mask, we can mask
‘Cause Covid really takes a toll

We can mask, we can mask
Everybody checkin’ their seals
We can mask, we can mask
Fellow maskers catchin’ the feels

Let the people ask
Why’d you wear a mask?
‘Cause it’s a safety mask!

We can mask if we want to
It could save your life and mine
It’s your health, don’t abuse it, or you might lose it
If you don’t mask each time

I say, we can mask if we want to
We can leave our grins behind
'Cause the grins spread SARS in buildings and cars
And indoors where people dine

I say, we can mask, we can mask
We don’t want the Covid that’s Long
Get your mask, safety mask
Put it on and sing this song

We can mask, we can mask
Listen, I don’t mean to be crass
We can mask, we can mask
‘Cause everybody’s sick off their ass

Oh well a safety mask
Yes it's a safety mask
Well it's a safety mask

Well it's a safety mask
Yes it's a safety mask
Well it's a safety mask
It's a safety mask
Well it's a safety mask
Oh it's a safety mask
Oh it's a safety mask
Well it's a safety mask…
