This Mask is Your Mask

Updated: Dec 30, 2021

(Sung to This Land is Your Land)


This mask is your mask This mask is my mask From California to the New York Island From the bearded forest to the drooling waters This mask was made for you and me


Found some used masks on a desert highway Wanted to sell those used masks on my Ebay Could make for a huge payday This mask was made for you and me


As I was drinking my Starbucks latte I forgot my mask was still on me I poured that hot latte into my mask on me This mask was made for you and me


And with my mask on I started sneezing Those around me I was displeasing With my wet mask I started freezing This mask was made for you and me


When the sun came shining, I was drooling People were only waving, who are we foolin? As restrictions lifted, governors were chanting This mask was made for you and me


In the shadow of the steeple, I saw no people But in Walmart and Target too many people As they stood their masking, I stood there asking Is this mask made for you and me?


I met a mask mumbler down at Best Buy I said could you repeat that about 10 times? I finally smiled and just walked to Aisle 5 This mask was made for you and me


I saw some teenagers with their masks down I guess they were matching their pants down Then in protests burned our towns down This mask was made for you and me


This mask is my mask This mask is your mask From closed California to the closed New York Island From outside in the forest or swimming in the waters This mask was made for you and me
