Screen Time Bonanza

A bonanza bonanza bonanza bonanza
Screen time bonanza
Screen time bonanza
It’s a good time
To make glasses for children
Habit-tracking apps
And kid-safe chats
It’s a good time
To make money off this
While the kids are at home
On their computer phones
Screen time bonanza
It’s a good time
To make a mini workspace
So your mini-learner
Doesn’t become a huge jerk face
A good time
Is when your eyeballs are straining
Somebody’s making money
Off the paths they’re taking
Screen time bonanza

Who will weather the storm
Who’ll make it to winter break in one piece
Who can find their own space
Spend time in their place, happy and safe
Who can wait out the pain
The suffering in vain while experts agree
Those who can find their own space,
Spend time in their place, will stay healthy & safe

Where Are Your Hands?
02:00
|

Please keep all your limbs in as small a radius as possible about your body
Be careful to angle your mouth below your line of sight
Below your line of sight
Pay attention
Where are your hands
Where are your hands
Where have your hands been
Where have your hands been today
What did you touch
What did you touch on your way inside this classroom
What did you touch on your way to the bus
When’s the last time you washed your hands
When’s the last time you washed your hands
Are you playing with your mask right now
Are you chewing on your mask right now

What if we scrapped the curriculum this year?
What do children need beyond being alive
Taking in the world
What do children need beyond being together
Taking on the world

Welcome to the Warehouse

So glad you liked seeing the factory floor
Welcome to the warehouse
Please wear this PPE
Yes even outdoors
Welcome to the warehouse
We’ve got all these desks
In all these rows
Staring right ahead
Like you know
As if you know

Would the Minister please care to join us today?
Will he decide to pay us a visit?
What could possibly go wrong (x2)
When he took care of everything for a song
Would the minister please care to join us today
Will he possibly pay us a visit?
Take a selfie, my friend
But just stay ’til the end of the day
Will you join us today?
(Instrumental interlude)
What could possibly go wrong? (x3)
