Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
I remember the last time I donated bloodThe nurse put a bandage on my arm. She told meNot to remove it for six hoursThe time was five o'clock, and at about ten to sixI was having an early dinner with some friendsIn a pretty nice restaurantI was embarrassed enough that I had short sleeves onThe bandage made me look downright sillySo I removed it slowly, surreptitiouslySo no one would seeSuddenly, a thin but powerful stream of bloodStarted gushing out of my armIt hit a man sitting directly opposite from meSplashing off of his head and onto the floorA waiter delivering a bowl of chicken noodle soupTo a nearby table slipped,The bowl went flying and landed on his headI was completely covered with noodlesAnd I disappearedWell, I learned my lesson that dayAnd the next time I give bloodI'll wear long sleevesAnd I'll leave the bandage on
