Lyrics
Lag time…
Lag time…
Social distancing
Means resisting
Community spreading
In choir rehearsals
Social distancing
Is insisting
On all of us singing
Together online
If we are missing
Community feeling
Of social greeting
In face-to-face meeting
Acoustics ringing
In the room where we’re singing
Chords actually blendering
Please keep remembering:
Social distancing
Not a forever thing
Only for limiting
Transmission for now
For now we’re valuing
The wi-fi connecting us:
All of us singing
Together online
Lag time…
