Quarantine

This song is dedicated to all the Spring Breakers who’ve had their travel plans canceled by the virus crisis. Here’s to you from the Beach Boys

Aruba, Jamaica, oh I just can’t take ya
To Bermuda, Bahama, stay home pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego, not places that we go…

All the way from Wuhan, there’s a place called Quarantine
It’s just the kind of scene to get away from it all
No toes in the sand, TV remote melting in your hand
Spending all of your time, watching wacko Netflix tiger man
Here in Quarantine

Aruba, Jamaica, oh I just can’t take ya
To Bermuda, Bahama, stay home pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego, not places that we go
Here in Quarantine
There’s just no way to get the tropic scene
‘cept in a magazine
Right here in Quarantine

We’ll read lots of books, while the kids do their e-learn work
No paper goods in the store, means we’ll throw fits and kinda go berserk
Corona-cation delight, long naps and snack-filled nights
That dreamy look in your eye, once you find out that we have Amazon Prime
Here in Quarantine

Aruba, Jamaica, oh I just can’t take ya
To Bermuda, Bahama, stay home pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego, not places that we go
Here in Quarantine
There’s just no way to get the tropic scene
‘cept in a magazine
Right here in Quarantine

  1. Rob,
    Thank you for sharing your creative humor. I work with a good friend of yours. We work in healthcare which is insane right now. Your posts make us laugh and take us away from the chaos if only for a few moments. It’s great to laugh.

    Thank you.
