Despite the CDC reimposing indoor mask mandates—Americans need to continue to keep their spirits up. For a change of pace, we have put together an alternate set of lyrics closely resembling Mark Morrison’s Return of the Mack, entitled “Return of the Mask”.
[We meant to keep the words as close to the original to highlight the similarities and apply the lyrical content to modern society. For the best experience, listen to the song as you read along the alternative lyrics below. Enjoy!]
Return of the Mask
“Well, I tried to tell you so (Yes, I did)
But I guess you didn’t know
As the saddest story goes
Maybe, now I got the flu
‘Cause I knew it from the start
Mandates, when they broke my heart
Now I have to mask again
When is this gonna end?”
“You lied to me
I got vaccinated just for you
You lied to me
Yes, I tried, yes I tried
You lied to me
Even though you knew I’d die for you
You lied to me
Yes, I cried, yes I cried”
“Return of the Mask (Variant!)
Return of the Mask (Come on)
Return of the Mask (Oh my God)
We knew that it’d be back (Here I am)
Return of the Mask (Once again)
Return of the Mask (Top of the world)
Return of the Mask (Watch my flu)
We knew that it’d be back (Here I go)”
“To Biden, it’s a game (Hustling slow)
Running things so we’re restrained (All night long)
Letting all the people know
That the masks will run the show
The Government you know is wrong
And all the nasty things they’ve done (Oh, oh, oh)
So maybe listen carefully
While they string our lives along”
“You lied to me
Fauci said he’d never turn on me
You lied to me
But he did, but he did
You lied to me
All this pain you said I’d never feel
You lied to me
But I do, but I do, do, do”
“Return of the Mask (Variant!)
Return of the Mask (Hold on)
Return of the Mask (Don’t you know)
We knew that it’d be back (Here I go)
Return of the Mask (Oh, little girl)
Return of the Mask (Once my pearl)
Return of the Mask (Up and down)
We knew that it’d be back (Round and round)”
“You lied to me
Fauci said he’d never turn on me
You lied to me
But he did, but he did
You lied to me
All this pain you said I’d never feel
You lied to me
But I do, but I do, do, do”
“Return of the Mask (Variant!)
Return of the Mask (Come on)
Return of the Mask (Oh, my God)
We knew that it’d be back (Here I am)
Return of the Mask (Once again)
Return of the Mask (Top of the world)
Return of the Mask (Watch my flu)
We knew that it’d be back (Don’t you know)
Return of the Mask (Variant!)
Return of the Mask (Hold on)
Return of the Mask (Be strong)
We knew that it’d be back (Here I go)
Return of the Mask (My little baby)
Return of the Mask (Watch my flu)
Return of the Mask (Up and down)
We knew that it’d be back (Round and round)”
