2020: The musical [German translation]

And now 2020: The musical

2020

Oh what a journey

how has one year felt like thirty?

January in America

Trump is impeached in America

More primaries in America

Near world war three in America

Trump's in the clear in America

Harry comes here to America

It's an new year in America

Nothing to fear in America

I've got these plans

like my third cousin's wedding

running a 5K

drinking less booze

Seeing a concert

Shopping for bedding

Family reuniun

on a Disney cruise

Then suddenly Covid

It's day sixteen going on seventeen

here in my quarantine

staying at home and

fixing dad's iPhone

where is my pal Jim Been?

It's day seventeen going on eighteen

just kicking back alone

on top I'm dressed

waiste-down I'm a mess

I'm ready to work from home

Hello, my name is Matt from work

an I would like to join you on this strange new thing called Zoom

Hello, my name is Zack from work

and please don't mind that I am in my childhood bedroom

Hello, my name is Ron rom work

please enjoy my background that looks like I'm on the moon

Wow, Ah

Hello, my name is ...

Oh, I think your audio is off

I think there's a problem

Hey

You audio is off

Ups, I was on mute

Hello

hello

hello

hello

hello

hello

Something has changed within me

Something is not the same

I'm thick of catching moths

on my animal crossing game

I'm carving my own puzzles

Out-dancing my TikTok feed

the next week I have big plans

to make my on cheese

I think that I'm loosing my sanity

It's clear that I'm loosing my sanit

I gotta leave this house

One

walk for recreation

gotta get out of my seat

One

neighbour walking torward me

I'd better cross the street

One cough and suddenly people all stare at me

I swear it's just a tickle, it's allergies

Memory drinking lattes at Starbucks

sitting crammed into tables

nowhere to put my arms

I remember the crowded hipster bar acros the street

Grinding to Lizzo 'til I barfed

Alright, well I'm off to a birthday thing

Just me and ten friends

you wanna come with?

What?

Andrew?

You ok, bud?

And I'm telling you

I'm not going

You're a fan guy,

I can't deny

but I will not hang out inside

no, no, no, no way

no, no, no, no way

I ...

Andrew, Andrew, Andrew,

it's an outdoor party

We're just gonna go to a park or something

Oh, that sounds fun

Yeah, let's go

Okay, cool

What's going on?

What day is it?

November 3rd

Election,

election,

election

The AP has called the race for Joe

but President Trump says the election is far from over

You can't throw a hissy fit

and say this ain't the end

But the only thing that's running now

is the hair dye on your friend

'Cause we've all seen Steve Kornacki's board

and it says you're not president

you can't stop the count

you can't stop the count

Moderna,

they just made a shot from Moderna

I'm not throwing away my shot

No, I'm not throwing away my shot

Heyo, I trust Doctor Fauci

it's just a little ouchie

and I'm not throwing away my shot

When 2020 started,

it was supposed to be my year

So what happened?

took a shower once a month

while trembling with fear

God, what happened?

A virus that infects the entire world

What's so scary about that?

I must trust that next year will be easier

and that we'll have each others' backs

And I finally get to go out

And I let the whole world see my mouth

I believe

that next year will be better for all of us

I believe

that come next spring

we'll get to hug our parents

and I believe

that we should listen to science and not believing drinking bleach is an acutal medical cure

2021

will be our year

I believe
