about

This song is written from the point of view of a young boy, talking to his mom, about the stressful 2020 state of affairs

lyrics

Mom, I want to go out and play, I can't stay in another day
I'm 9 but I'll soon be 10, must I wash my hands again?

And there's no school, and the masked men look cool
And they're everywhere

Mom, I'd like to see my friends, how come the bad news never ends
I'm scared but I'm not afraid, mom look, a big parade

Is it April Fools?, 'cause the masked men rule
They're everywhere

There's people in the park again today, though the sign says stay away
And every day's the same, it's like some boring game

There is still no school, the masked men look cool
Is it April Fool?, and all the mask people rule
And they're everywhere ... everywhere
