Totally Fixed Where We Are

Third lockdown

2021 and it's a little bit lonely

No-one's ever coming round

Third lockdown

2021 we bet we'd all be outside

But I'm still listening to the sound of their tears

Third lockdown

Every day I'm treated like I offer room service

But they mess it in the blink of an eye

Third lockdown

Every now and then we get a little bit terrified

Of when we think she's gonna let fly

Third lockdown, time flies

Struggling to tell the days apart

Third lockdown, time flies

Feels as if we're only at the start

But we've grown a lot in height

There's no way for us to measure

And if you look our clothes are tight

We've been eating more than ever

All these screens must be harming our sight

'Cause we're on all day long

Together we once limited the hours online

Now someone's got the Xbox One on all of the time

I don't know what to do, we work in fits and starts

We're sitting in pyjamas making catty remarks

We're really feeling uptight

My bedroom's like a building site

Once upon a time we could travel abroad

Now we barely get in the car

There's nothing we can do

We're totally fixed where we are

Once upon a time we went hiking for miles

But now we can't be arsed with the park

Nothing we can say

We're totally fixed where we are

Used to be bright eyes

Struggling to tell the days apart

Now 'Lord of the Flies

It feels as if we're right back at the start

And we leave on all the lights

I don't close the doors in winter

Dad said use only black and white

We've been ruining the printer

And we'll always be picking a fight

'Cause they'll never be 'wrong'

We're physically older but in mental decline

We won't go back to school until the eighth of March

Just sitting in our dressing gowns and giving off farts

We're really feeling irate

Like bears that never hibernate

Forever in a lockdown state

Once upon a time we were singing Les Mis

But now it's 80s songs from the charts

Nothing we can say

We're totally fixed where we are
