Personal Hygiene


Someone in the men's room told me a wise tale
He said you don't wash your hands you'll get into trouble
Personal hygiene I don't understand
It doesn't make sense I know you're wrong

I was in the mountains and there were trees
We saw some fish but his ears were dirty
So she went home to watch TV
Personal hygiene I don't understand
It doesn't make sense just like this song

1982: I was 12 years old and learned how to strum two chords on the guitar, so I wrote a song. I remember writing this on my notepad on the way to my cousins' house.  I was especially trying to use the wrong personal pronouns to make it confusing; just like personal hygiene.
