Adam Sandler is now the latest star to try his hand at writing a coronavirus anthem and while he's no John Lennon, he at least might make you chuckle.

The actor — who is, of course, the mastermind behind "The Hanukkah Song" and "The Thanksgiving Song" — debuted "The Quarantine Song" during Thursday night's at-home episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Singing from what appears to be a sort of home studio decorated with kitschy beach decor, the actor crooned: "Doctors and nurses will save us from this mess if we get them the supplies that they need/And I hope they save us soon because I'm really, really sick of my family."
