wipe the doorknob twice
wash your hands twenty seconds
the metal is cold as ice
wipe the doorknob twice

hecatombs of sacrifice
will little stem the doom that beckons
wipe the doorknob twice
wash your hands twenty seconds

MICHAEL HELSEM was born in Dallas in 1958. Shortly afterwards, fish fell from the sky.
