The best advice I’ve ever heard,
That sages ever shared,
Was set out in two simple words
And they are “Be Prepared”
Put aside for rainy days
Plan with stricter stringency
Now matter what the data says
There’s gonna be contingency
The experts guessed that Delta
Was the second wave and final
But we see that wasn’t etched in stone
It was embossed on vinyl
Joe believed those experts
He took their tip and bet it
The virus would just fade away
And he would get the credit
What other explanation
(Since no expense was spared)
Could find us in this circumstance
With Joe so unprepared
Now medicines are rationed
And testing is a joke
Just like Obama’s website
The government is broke
Like droughty California
Where we have precipitation
But no one’s building reservoirs
Now, that’s not preparation
And if you go out driving
In the winter where it snows
Take some food and blankets
Or you’ll likely lose your toes
Hope your Tesla’s fully charged
That keeps the engine humming
Cause if you’re in Virginia
The government’s not coming
And that, friends, is my message
Clear and written large
Ah, for good old golden days
When Boy Scouts were in charge
