This is a song about when Covid was on the horizon - we were waiting for it to get here. Y'know, probably January-ish/February-ish of 2020. Something along those lines. There was that ominous feeling of a thunderhead on the horizon approaching slowly. You knew things were going to get bad, but you didn't know how bad. And you see it comin' and comin' and comin', and there's nothing you can do to make it stop. It's almost like the slow approach of Covid was like watching an accident in slow motion or something.  It's just this thing happening and you can't make it stop. Oh, and the whole thing about toilet paper.
