Suffering at home during their Coronavirus lockdown, the sadly quarantined townsfolk of Italy are singing at night to keep their spirits up – including Canto della Verbena (Song of Siena).
I wonder what we would sing in the UK if it comes to it? Perhaps, the Self-Preservation Society song from the Italian Job film?
This is the self-preservation society
This is the self-preservation society
Go wash your German bands, your boat race too
Comb your Barnet Fair we got a lot of anti-virus research to do!
