Analysis of 2022



These are dire times I think I need some air.
Don’t ask me if I’m okay,
don’t ask me how I’ve been.
Don’t you know what’s going to happen,
don’t you see what it’s become?
Go get your friends and family,
and don’t forget the rum.
‘Cuz you’ll need it on the journey.
The journey that’s to come.
Say goodbye to your old life,
we’ll all celebrate with you,
With a firework from heaven,
and a headline in the news.
