This piece was created for solo trombone with shouted lyrics as part of the composer's Rooftop Trombone series during the first total lockdown in Malaysia in the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic.

This version for jazz ensemble retains the original spirit with the entire band shouting the lyrics about the frustration of life under lockdown. No doubles; lead trumpet to C6.
