about
This song is a list of all the things I'm gonna do "When Lockdown Lifts". It's meant to be a message of hope and gratitude. When I wrote this song I was just wanted to shine some light on a tough situation and provide a little humor and levity. I'm a self proclaimed agnostic but I've always been inspired by gospel music. Music is my religion. The stage has always been my church.
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, 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, 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, Treat myself to a cracker and a slice of harvarti, When lockdown lifts I'm gonna have a party
When lockdown lifts gonna have a spitting contest, Gonna get out the measuring tape see who spits the furthest, Gonna give an award to the one that is the best, When lockdown lifts gonna have a spitting contest
When lockdown lifts I'm gonna hug me a stranger, I wont be afraid of no sickness or 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, A mohawk or a mullet, I'm 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, You might find me passed 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 servers more, I'm gonna tell how much I appreciate em at the grocery store, Gonna write a nice letter to a doctor who's been fighting the good war, When lockdown lifts I'm gonna tip 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 in the kitchen washing dishes 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 all more
