Dirty Fingernails
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Dirty dirty fingernails...
Dirty dirty fingernails...
Out of the shower, on to the bathroom floor
Out in the kitchen, underneath the casserole
Dirty dirty fingernails...
Dirty dirty fingernails...
(it takes a lot of energy to make that sound)
Out of the shower, on to the bathroom floor
Out in the kitchen, underneath the casserole
Out on the patio, out in the great outdoors
