lyrics

The governor told me to put on a mask
I said man I thought you’d never ask
My face is not an appealing feature
The girls all told me I’m a hideous creature
Now I can roam the streets with confidence
Cause I’m covering up my countenance
Hey sweetie, let’s start a conversation
You’ll really get to use your imagination

I’m not ugly under here
I’m much better than I appear
But, baby, please don’t ask
What’s under the mask?

Now my face is covered cause I’m well aware
Of the many dangers of going bare
I could get an airborne virus load
Or you could find out that I look like a toad
I’ll keep my mask on to stay protected
From having my hideous face detected
I hope they never find a vaccine
Because my naked face is so obscene

I’m not ugly under here
I’m much better than I appear
I look like Elvis in ‘68
One night with me would be pretty great
But, baby, please don’t ask
What’s under the mask?

Every day I live in fear
That the virus will disappear
Then you’ll see me walking down the street
And you won’t get within six feet

I’m not ugly under here
I’m much better than I appear
I look like Iggy in ‘74
Writhing across your floor
But, baby, please don’t ask
What’s under the mask?
