'Toy Story' composer Randy Newman shares social-distancing song 'Stay Away'
Randy Newman, the man behind some of the most classic songs from the "Toy Story" franchise, is bringing his fans some musical relief amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The "You've Got a Friend in Me" singer-songwriter recently shared his very own social-distancing song, "Stay Away," at the request of Southern California Public Radio station 89.3 KPCC.
"Stay six feet away from other people. Wash your hands religiously and often. Don't touch your face," he told viewers before launching into his ballad.
Some of the lyrics of "Stay Away" include: "Stay away from me. Baby, keep your distance, please. Stay away from me. Words of love in times like these. I'm gonna be with you 24 hours a day. A lot of people couldn't stand that. But you can. You'll be with me 24 hours a day. What a lucky man I am."
Following his performance, Newman sent well-wishes to his fans and asked them to stay safe.
"It's hard for Americans who don't like being told what to do at all," he shared. "But in this case, let's do it. We'll be all right. Okay. All my love, everybody, bye."
