I used to look at the world and there was so much to see,
but everyone in it was stuck on a screen,
I walked this way, blue light. That way, blue light.
All on social media, obsessed and uptight.
I look at the world and there is less to be seen,
there isn’t much to do now but look at your screen,
the shops are empty, so are the streets,
Our time in isolation is just obscene.
I will look at the world after all of this is done,
there will be kids in the park, having lots of fun.
The shops will be packed, to go outside we’ll be keen,
and hopefully, we will stay off our screens.
