Twenty one is gone out the door I'm so glad it is gone
Twenty two was here at midnight eight hours before the new dawn
Twenty one should get a kick in the ass going out the door
It was not much better that the one that went before
There isn't one amongst us from County Cork to Tyrone
Who doesn't know some friend or relative who died all alone
Or heard the arguments about wearing or not wearing masks
While the overworked medical staff went about their tasks
This latest strain of influenza will surely smite us
Far sooner than the flu, bronchitis or laryngitis
The total deaths continue to rise from the infection
Of people who fear hoax theories about the injection
Meanwhile gambling is guided by major sports and the state
Encouraging the poor people to dream and speculate
Now I fear gamblers and alcoholics are synonymous
The newest organization is Gambles Anonymous
Reportedly far out in space there is a huge asteroid
And if it veers and hits the earth we could all be destroyed
Undeterred the living must hold on while the world spins around
And hope at the year's end we have not lost any more ground
DeBlasio will be gone too thanks to term limitation
I hope Adams proves to be The Big Apple's salvation
On New Years Eve a new blinking star appeared in the night
There is little doubt in my heart it must be Betty White
