Hiram the Hippy

Hiram realises that, being a figment of my imagination, he is Trumplike – immune from the virus and unable to pass it on. He even rewrote his song to celebrate the fact.

Here’s the score

I’m Hiram the Hippy and I’m O.K.
Despite the covid lockdown I still get out to play
In the land of make believe the virus ain’t around.
This virtual world is all I’ve got until a vaccine’s found.

It just ain’t fair. (No, no, no.)
Little bugs in the air
But don’t dismay
‘cos I’m just a Virtual Hippy so I’m OK.

I’m Hiram the Hippy. How do you do?
It’s such an honour for me to catch up with you.
We’ve followed different paths for so many years
Now at last I’ve met you, Let’s share a couple of beers

(repeat chorus)

It used to be Hari Krishna, Hari Krishna
But now it’s sanitiser, so now it’s sanitiser
so now I use sanitiser, Hari Krishna
I’m using Hari Krishna’s sanitiser
Hari Krishna, sanitiser, Hari Krishna sanitiser, Hari Krishna ooh, ooh
