My Bonnie lies across the hallway.  
My Bonnie lies in quarantine.  
My Bonnie lies across the hallway.  
Oh, someone invent a vaccine!

_Chorus_:  
Invent a vacc, invent a vacc,  
Oh, someone invent a vacci-i-ine.  
Invent a vacc, invent a vacc,  
Oh, someone invent a vaccine.

Last night as I lay on my pillow,  
Last night as I lay in my room,  
Last night as I lay on my pillow,  
I spoke to my Bonnie on Zoom.

_Chorus_

I met with my Bonnie this morning.  
I met with my Bonnie today.  
I met with my Bonnie this morning,  
Though we stayed at least six feet away.

_Chorus_
