Another Month in the House by Gina Roen

(A parody based on Queen’s “Another One Bites the Dust”)

Chorus
Another month in the house—-
Another month in the house—-
And another one’s gone, another one’s gone!
Another month in the house.
Hey! What’ll get you through another month in the house?

I look warily down the street with my mask pulled way down low
My shades are drawn as I look about, where did all the neighbors go?
Are you ready, are you ready for this?
Are you ready to get on your feet?
The people you know are all inside.
Is there anything to do but eat?

Chorus

How do you think you’ll get along with another month on the couch?
Glued to your Visa for Amazon Prime, too many chips, so your jeans say “ouch”!
Are you ready? Are you satisfied? How long can you stay apart?
Another trip to Costco for Lysol wipes, another call to Instacart!

Chorus and guitar solo

You’re running out of ways to kill the time: Zoom meetings and Facebook friends.
Thank goodness for Netflix, my dog and remote, cat videos that never end!
Are you ready for a new hair-do, getting out of your sweats and stuff?
This virus thing will end someday when the Governor says “Enough!”

Another month in the house. Another month in the house.
Got my PJ’s on and my slippers, too.
Another month in the house.
Got my comfort food and my coffee too.
Another month in the house.
Another month in the house…
