We Hereby Declare Jimmy Fallon's "Starting to Crack" Song Our Social-Distancing Anthem

What has Jimmy Fallon [1] been doing with his spare time at home lately, you ask? Well, taking multiple showers, eating Pepsi-soaked potato chips for breakfast, and Zoom video calling his third cousins, apparently. During the latest at-home episode of his talk show [2], Fallon performed a song titled "Starting to Crack," which he wrote to express the struggles of social distancing with his family [3] for weeks on end. Whether you're currently staying indoors with your family, roommates, or yourself, the relatable-as-hell lyrics will undoubtedly speak to your soul.

The opening verse of the made-up track touches on Fallon's monotonous morning routine, as he sings, "Woke up, showered, brushed my teeth. I got dressed, had something to eat. Got undressed and took another shower." Post-double-showering, he "cleaned the floors until they sparkled," "read the Wikipedia for Meghan Markle [4]," and "looked at TikTok for seven hours." Sound familiar? Of course, the father of two [5] couldn't resist touching on his daughters' confusing maths assignments and his habit of drinking three glasses of wine by 4 p.m. Same, Jimmy . . . same. Watch the video above to hear the unofficial theme song of staying at home in its entirety.
