Nirvana: [Smells Like Teen Spirit](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTWKbfoikeg)
With the lights out, it’s less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
The Tubes: [Don’t Touch Me There](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTd3PrTzSPY)
At this moment of surrender, darling, if you really care
Don’t touch me there.

“We gotta get out of this place, if it’s the last thing we ever do…”
No linky.

Most famous version by the [Animals](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJVpihgwE18). Great great song.

Any pandemic needs to be accompanied by Dave Lombardo’s pounding drums, so I’ll go with [“Epidemic”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pF_re9gHNW8) by Slayer. (ETA: And judging by the Youtube comments, I’m not the only one who feels that way.)
