Verse 1:
I'm down and out with Rona, feeling sick and all alona
Mrs. Wishing me dead for Christmas, just because I brought the dog home a little wet and dirty
Two purple lines, they show my positivity, but I can't shake these fever and chills
Chorus:
I'm feeling low, down on my luck
Rona's got me stuck, I'm out of luck
I wish I could just shake it off, but it's not that easy, I've had enough
Verse 2:
I try to rest, but I keep needing to change my shirt
I toss and turn, my head hurts so
I wish I could just disappear, escape from all this fear
Chorus:
I'm feeling low, down on my luck
Rona's got me stuck, I'm out of luck
I wish I could just shake it off, but it's not that easy, I've had enough
Verse 3:
I took the test and saw the two purple lines
It's clear to see, I'm ill this time
Can't leave the house, can't see my friends
Bridge:
But I know I'll get through this, I'll find my way
I'll keep on fighting, I won't let Rona win the day
I'll find the strength to carry on, no matter how hard it seems
I'll beat this virus, make all my dreams
Chorus:
I'm feeling low, down on my luck
Rona's got me stuck, I'm out of luck
But I won't give up, I'll keep on fighting
I'll beat this virus, and keep on writing
I'm feeling low, but I won't stay down
I'll rise above, and wear a clown suit
I'm feeling low, down on my luck
Rona's got me stuck, but I won't give up
I can't sing it, but if anyone wants to give it a go, pls do.
Yep,
I have some ideas for musical background
to your lovely verses.
But unfortunately all my favorites are
pure instrumental
with no singer.
although I imagine that music and even video may suit ?
I spent way too much time last night trying to turn those lyrics into a song on my iPhone with no luck FlySurfer.

Can you rewrite it so that it fits Happy Birthday?
Verse 1:
It's my birthday and I'm feeling low
I'm all alone, it's just me and the glow
Of my phone, as I scroll through my feed
Wishing I could be with those I need
Chorus:
It's just another day, in this strange and lonely world
I'm down and out, with this virus unfurled
I can't celebrate, the way I want to
It's my birthday and I'm feeling blue
Verse 2:
I miss my friends and the hugs we would share
But we're all apart, it's just not fair
I'm stuck at home, with nothing to do
It's my birthday and I'm feeling so blue
Chorus:
It's just another day, in this strange and lonely world
I'm down and out, with this virus unfurled
I can't celebrate, the way I want to
It's my birthday and I'm feeling blue
Bridge:
I know I'm not the only one, who's feeling this way
We're all in this together, on this difficult day
But it doesn't make it any easier, to be so far apart
On my birthday, when all I want is to be with my heart
Chorus:
It's just another day, in this strange and lonely world
I'm down and out, with this virus unfurled
I can't celebrate, the way I want to
It's my birthday and I'm feeling blue

Maaaate, never hear of Auto-tune? Might need Vocaloid if you don't want to sing, then just borrow the melody ;)
It's the best I can do given my situation, I had another version with Corona and wishing Winona could make me feel better.
Today I look a lot sicker and I can't even lift my bone broth mug without breaking in to a sweat, but I actually feel better.
So nobody else got the rona?

I've got it now! To my surprise a new test pack, and it showed two lines. I have a slightly runny nose, but had a scratchy-ish throat for the last two days. If it weren't for the test I would have shrugged it off as 'just a cold'.
I was exposed to someone that had it about 6 days ago, so I am guessing it has been building up since then.

Wow, finally conclusive proof why we needed to shut state borders...
Can't have people travelling from south Coolangatta to north Coolangatta who might have an undiagnosed cold.

Overrun with people who have slightly runny noses.
Quick everyone - lock yourselves down for the next 6 months.....

China has just opened it borders. And abandoned "zero covid policy". And narrowed its criteria for what a COVID death is.
Let the tourism commence!

I've got it now!
Well lucky you.
First 2 days weren't too bad, mostly sore throat, aches and chills. Christmas eve is when it really kicked in, worst sore throat EVER, couldn't even talk and swollowing saliva or water was like swollowing one of those stainless steel scrubbing balls impregnated with sulphuric acid. I was very concerned it might go in to my chest, but airway stayed clear. End of boxing day I started coughing up brown yuck. The more I coughed up, the less my throat hurt, but I was coughing up every 15mins. I've had to change t-shirt and pillow case every hour @ night.
Still coughing up clear mucus.
Never had any sniffles.
I guess all up like a once in a decade bad flu... 0 sick days in the past 3yrs and the day we break for Christmas, BAM.

I feel sorry for you. No one wants anyone to go through this. I am too pessimistic to think I will get away with just cold symptoms and suspect I will be seeing the same as you over the next few days.
I had a bad flu years ago and one of the symptoms was I had a bad sore throat and lost my voice completely. The surprising thing is that so few people noticed!
Don't worry people, if that happens this time, I can still type! Probably more!

I like you're effort FN.... we've had some entertaining discussions... keep it up
How are you Flysurfer? Getting better?
I stumbled across this article that suggests a lot of people may have had Covid but never knew it. I know I felt like I could have had it over the last year or so although the symptoms were so mild that I never really expected it and RAT tests always showed not positive. This is the first time for me that I showed a positive result.
