Bend Forward, Children

Bend forward, children and take your shots
It’s not your body and not your choice
See, if you don’t bend forward and don’t take your shots
Then mine won’t work
No, mine won’t work!

There’s a new variant on the horizon
and they will keep on coming until we build back better
And I won’t have protection unless you get your shots
Then mine won’t work
No, they just won’t work

Just take a good look - at Israel
They’re all vaccinated and it’s going so well
Their hospitals are empty. Their borders are open
And they travel freely without any token
It’s just Ruth, it’s just David- who still refuses
but we’ll vaccinate them with vegan juices

So eat your vegetables, children. And just bend forward
´cause there’s a new variant and they will keep on coming
Unless we build back better, you’re gonna get your shots
Or mine won’t work
and it’s all your fault!

No stillborn babies. It’s not the jab
Because kids have strokes too and heart attacks
No jabbed are dying. No joints are aching
No hearts are stopping. No bodies are shaking
No lungs are bleeding. No blood is clogging
It’s natural causes and too much jogging

So bend forward, children. Take your shots
It’s not your body and not your choice
See, if you don’t bend forward and don’t take your shots
Then mine won’t work
Oh, mine won’t work

They just won’t work
And it’s all your fault

Watch the Jones Plantation movie, or buy it for a friend, to make sure you don’t bend foreward every time. (Affiliate link). Image credit: Doug McKenty
