Vaccinaaation ๐ถ๐ต
With apologies to Fermo Dante Marchetti and Maurice de Fรฉraudy, composer and lyricist of the famous song, Fascination – perhaps best known as performed by Nat King Cole:

๐ถ๐ต Vaccinaaation ๐ถ๐ต
It was vaccinaaation, I know,
Time for a shot in my arm, for protection
Just a little jab, just a tiny stab
I was saved by a quickie injection
It was vaccinaaation, I know,
A second shot came along three months later
Just a little poke, it really is no joke โ
My arm hurt like a bite from a โgator
It was vaccinaaation, I know,
Time to get boostered, just for โinsuranceโ
Just a little pierce, just a little prick
No Covid! For I have resistance! โฆwell, 70% resistanceโฆ approximatelyโฆ theyโre not sureโฆ
