An agnostic gospel song. A song about all the things we wanted to do during the pandemic.
lyrics
“When Lockdown Lifts”
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna jump for joy
Gonna strut around town with all my brand new toys, Gonna spread love into the hearts of every girl and boy
And when lockdown lifts I'm gonna jump for joy
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna catch me a buzz, Gonna go out and have a few drinks just because, Gonna put on a record and see what these old feet does
And when lockdown lifts I'm gonna catch me a buzz
When lockdown lifts I'm feed all my friends
Gonna feed all my enemies too just to make amends, If everybody gets hungry I'm gonna feed em all again, When lockdown lifts I'm gonna feed all my friends
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna yell from the roof, gonna go down to the candy store to sooth my sweet tooth, I might even open up a kissing booth, when lockdown lifts I'm gonna yell from the roof
Chorus:
Gonna shout glory glory hallelujah x3
Praise the lord amen
Glory glory hallelujah hallelujah
Glory glory hallelujah praise the lord amen
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna have a party, gonna drink a gallon of coca cola and bacardi, eat alot of crackers and Harvarti, when lockdown lifts I'm gonna have a party
When lockdown lifts gonna have a spitting contest, see who can spit the the farthest measure the distance to see who's the best, when lockdown lifts gonna have a spitting contests
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna hug a stranger, wont be scared about the danger, might be a nun or a park ranger, when lockdown lifts I'm hug a stranger
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna get me a haircut, might get a rat tail or a mohawk or a mullet, im overdue for one I tell you what, when lockdown lifts I'm gonna get a haircut
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna get drunk at the bar, gonna take a bunch of shots until I see stars, pass out in the backseat of my friends car, when lockdown lifts I'm gonna get drunk at the bar
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna thank me a nurse, for keeping me from riding in the big black hearse, for doing their job all through the worst when lockdown lifts im gonna thank me a nurse
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna tip my servers more I'm gonna tell how much I appreciate em at the grocery store gonna gonna write a nice letter to a doctor who waged the good war when lockdown lifts I'm gonna tip my servers more
When lockdown lifts I'm still gonna wash my hands for 20 seconds, cleanliness is next to godliness I reckon, it's the elderly and immunocompromised we ought to be protecting, when lockdown lifts I'm still gonna wash my hands for 20 seconds
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna go to the restaurant an have an 8 course meal
Order one of everything on the menu I'm gonna get my fill but you'll find me washing dishes in the kitchen after cause I cant pay my bill when lockdown lifts I'm gonna have an 8 course meal
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna appreciate you all more gonna stand there smiling and greet you at the door gonna shake hands with everyone until my arms get sore when lockdown lifts I'm gonna appreciate you more
